Ubuntu has some benefits but I think it would be better to stick with a strictly Debian based infrastructure for several reasons. First is the fact that Ubuntu staff have a stronger influence on what happens with the operating system than the community does. Theoretically this arrangement allows them to achieve more efficient progress. I question that conclusion since the entire Free Software movement is about the idea that closed hierarchical development generates less overall productivity. After considerable experience dealing with broken upgrades from Knoppix and other live cds I think that the cleaner the upgrade path to the Debian mirror network, the better. I've been using DFS (http://people.debian.org/~jgoerzen/dfs/html) and it provides a pretty good way to put a minimal install on a server without a lot of desktop-oriented stuff cluttering it up. -- Ean Schuessler, CTO [EMAIL PROTECTED] 214-720-0700 x 315 Brainfood, Inc. http://www.brainfood.com
