Why is it that every application/package I find that would support the management of an ISO9001:2000 quality management system (document control, corrective action tracking, forms management, process control) requires Windows Server and IIS?
(The one I did find that didn't require Windows was a hosted environment that, while it sounded OK from what I read, still would put our critical business data in the hands of a third party -- not something I'm real keen on...).
ISO9001:2000 is an *INTERNATIONAL STANDARD*, why is every software package I find written for an O/S that has thumbed it's nose at standards (that are not MS-standards) for the past 20 years?
Aaaarrrrrggghhh!
I have a client right now that is thinking of having me strip Linux off their server and install some MS Server product because they want to run some software that will only work with IIS and MSSQLServer.
There appear to be droves of developers that have never given the slightest consideration to platform independence, portability, industry standards, etc. Makes me ill.
