First, I must say that your response was tactful and well worded.

Second, I have been using windows XP for training and development but
I now need to move the application to staging and production. I want
to run this on Linux and have tried to install on Centos. I had some
initial issues concerning Python 2.4 and have been delaying
installation until TG2 is stable. My question now is Centos / Red Hat
a good platform for TG2 or should I look at Ubuntu?

I am open to suggestions.

Thanks.
