Just to be even handed about this it's my understanding that RedHat does

capable.

I'd be interested in this, even if it's just a few hours on the Sunday

Why do people find structure so critical to a community. We are a
group of people interested in Ubuntu and the progression of Ubuntu in
Australia. Do we need to hold conferences with minutes and boards?
None of this is at all binding so how can you expect anyone who does
not get their voted leader
to
positions based on merit every 12 months. When people nominate for
positions they can put up their credentials, why they want the position
and what they can do for the Ubuntu-au Loco.
As stated above, when we have a discussion on our goals, we can talk
about positions, then we can talk
into the document, like I used to with stand-alone scanner.

Hi Colin,
I don't know about what the Australian community thinks of this.
I would tread very carefully when installing codecs like 'Mint'
does, is a 'grey' legal area from my research.
One of the reasons that Ubuntu sells fluendo at their store.
What does everybody else think
consideration given to
a distros philosophy. But perhaps there is also a divergence of the
way Ubuntu, and Debian before them, and some other distros, interpret
the GPL AND its philosophical origin. Regardless, there does seem to
be a lot of waiting ;)
