Subject: Repairing the Economic Paradigm of Enterprise Linux the Easy Way
I have written a white paper which:
"This document describes the already existing free or very low cost
alternatives to high cost Enterprise Linux and the small additional
steps required to get them more widely adopted than the high cost ones
in approximately one to two years. The problem description is taken from
the UserLinux white paper, but the solutions are very different, taking
the way of least resistance rather than the UserLinux route of biggest
obstacles."
http://developer.lineox.org/white_paper.html
At the moment it is an incomplete draft, but there is a mailing list for
suggestions and discussion.
