Greetings.

For those at last night's CLUE meeting, what did you think about the threats 
to Linux by companies such as HP, IBM, Red Hat?

I personally will consider debian unstable a more viable option than my 
current Red Hat workstations, after learning about the Advanced Server closed 
license.  I'll have to read more about it and if Bruce's statements were 
accurate (I'm sure they were), I'll have to contact Red Hat.  I'm 
disappointed in their drive to make Advanced Server look and feel like an 
inexpensive UNIX to companies.

What about other thoughts on his talk?

Jeff
