Unfortunately no testing standard exists. Also good, bad or ugly are very subjective. But the DOD USA has a certification process. And M$ NT4 passes some sort of security tests which qualifies it for use in the military !!. No wonder they wind up shooting civilians ad nauseum. RH and Suse (afair) also qualify. On a side note RAF was about to drop purchase of US planes worth several billion cause the source code was not available. -- rgds jtd -- http://mm.glug-bom.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
