Doing a Debian-based XS came up in one of the server meetings we had a few months ago http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Conf_08_MAR_25_Notes. It kinda came up here as well: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Conf_08_AUG_07_Meeting A Ubuntu-based XS would be great. We've talked about it at SF State and a couple of other groups around here for reasons of familiarity and it being Debian based, etc. I'd be curious to see what it would take to get the XS on a Ubuntu or Debian base. cheers, Sameer -- Dr. Sameer Verma, Ph.D. Associate Professor of Information Systems San Francisco State University San Francisco CA 94132 USA http://verma.sfsu.edu/ http://opensource.sfsu.edu/ _______________________________________________ Server-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/server-devel
