[osdcmy-public] build your own Linux or choose form one of the hundreds out there.....
hi, All this talk about building a Malaysian(?) distro has intrigued me ... so I did a quick search and LWN (Linux World Net) has this list of distribuitions... http://lwn.net/Distributions/ some are categorized for specific purposes such for Edu, desktop and server. There are some such as Linux From Scratch (LFS) which allow to build your own Linux. IMHO - building your own Linux is great, and a good learning experience, but to put it out in the wild and encourage others to use it, is a very different and great responsibility. It you look at the above list, many of the distros are not updated regularly (many of them show last update/release as 2009! - that's 2 years behind). As a user, will I go for those distros? Probably not. A lot of them could have started with good intentions or because their creators wanted to 'scratch an itch', but its takes a lot of effort and resources to continue MAINTAINING a distro. and if your community of --contributors-- don't reach a critical mass or it does not have some form of final support, that distro will fail to be maintained and is just like another vehicle abandoned at the roadside. Rather I think efforts should be focussed on providing 'localisation' (credos to the local Debian, Fedora?, Ubuntu? ...etc guys..) and creating and packaging specialised apps (like a special package for Malaysian primary schools) for for the main distros. This is just my 2 cents worth. I don't mean to discourage, just to make aware. Like they say: "Let a thousand blossoms bloom"** PS ** this slogan is chosen with irony: its used by Mao's Cultural Revolution in China, and had disastrous consequences! -- #--- regds, Boh Heong, Yap -- To unsubscribe from and detail about this group http://portal.mosc.my/osdc-my-mailing-list-information MOSC2011 http://fb.me/mosc2011 MOSC Survey 2011 Awareness Of OSS Certification http://survey.mosc.my/mosc-survey-2011-awareness-oss-cert

Thanks to Eric for explaining this service.

Re: [osdcmy-public] Re: Looking for Graphics Designer who is interested in contributing to an open source project
Dear Cheok, I have searched my email and I couldn't found any email from you or anyone regarding the JStock graphic design request. However, I have read your sourceforge wiki page and I will put my hands on it when I have free time soon. Thanks for your interest in my skill.
