That would be the Microsoft way. Fortunately Redhat is not that stupid - they wouldn't buy any other distribution to get rid of it; at least some of the improvements would get into their distribution. We're already seeing this (they bought Delix, makers of DLD) - it's quite obvious if you look at some of the Lorax stuff. LLaP bero

Re: [Cooker] Redhat 6.1 Lorax is out.
I did like the idea of having a version of the kernel optimzed for Pentium II as well as one for the pentium, like Mandrake already does. Would this be a good idea for Mandrake to have? -- Stephen Grayslake, IL USA
Re: [Cooker] Redhat 6.1 Lorax is out.
Yeah, but you still have the choice to say no to Microsoft. Even if they give you 10 times the salary you're making right now. They can buy your company, but not your suppliers, employees, customers. And they can't buy 10,000,000 or more Linux users! Jean-Michel Dault [EMAIL PROTECTED] Lorne Shantz wrote: > Jo wrote: > > > Buy out? What good would that do?

It's the people behind it that make Mandrake what it is. If they buy out the name, I'm convinced these programmers will just start another fork and make that the best distro. Jo

Re: [Cooker] Redhat 6.1 Lorax is out.
Of course you won't see it on the Mandrake site! Lorax is RedHat 6.1 beta. With this, they try to be a better Mandrake than Mandrake ;-) But they're too late.
