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. On Feb 14, 11:02 am, Michael Pedersen <[email protected]> wrote: > Victor, I want to reply in a very sarcastic fashion to your rant. I won't, > though.
