Ladies, Gents, I am a heavy OpenVZ user myself [0] and just an hour ago I got notion of http://openisp.net/openisp/unxsVZ for the first time. Looks interesting but then I got a few remaining questions/remarks:
- Why did you make unxsVZ open source? What is your business idea? - What _exactly_ is http://openisp.net/openisp/unxsVZ ? Imo that page should get a 15 or so line abstract -- take a look at [0] so you see what I am referring to. - Maybe another 15 or so lines of why I (or anybody else e.g. CTO (Chief Technology Officer) of some big ISP) want to use/invest in unxsVZ rather than Virtozzo? - Are you folks going to create Debian packages yourself? unxsVZ is not going to have widespread use, testing and community development without ready to use packages by major Linux distributions i.e. RedHat and Debian (with all their offsprings like CentOS, Ubuntu, etc). - You folks should take a look at http://code.google.com/p/iredmail for all your email related efforts. - I read about support for MySQL. What about PostgreSQL? imho MySQL has become a very insecure technology to invest in, now that Oracle bought Sun; they already discontinued Virtual Iron, another open source competitor product to Oracles own virtualization platform. Here, many of our big customers (Audi, HSBC, Lufthansa, etc.) are moving towards PostgreSQL -- for their FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software) DBMSs that is. - How many of your own active developers are involved in developing unxsVZ? Judging from the commit messages I counted, must be four or so. - Let us finish this email with a fun-like rant ;-] If you guys want to move your trac site away from SVN (your whole source code hosting actually), to for example GIT [1], then here is how to do so [2].
