I clicked that link and read the article but the subject of this email seems misleading. The article actually says "Red Flag Linux may be next on IBM's agenda" and "The next Linux distribution that IBM throws its weight behind is likely to be China's Red Flag Linux..." and quotes an IBM official saying they are not yet ready to support another distro in addition to RedHat and SuSe. So the subject is incorrect and IBM seems to be a ways from supporting Red Flag. It kinda looks like no info from IBM spawned this and a reporter just needed something to write about so they chose to theorize. - -- Tracy R Reed http://ultraviolet.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFGKnf9PIYKZYVAq0RAsHWAJ934Hn8C3iWlcf0r1ZhbJGClsv8WQCgmtWd +Lmb8+JvgWsSC1RN1xz0jjk= =UGmv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
