OSCAR is an excellent project and a model of development of such things over the years. I'd say the natural tendency should be toward the standard system for debs, as a built-in part of the system that produces releases for Red Hat etc if it still does, not because that is the only way to do things, but because convergence rather than divergence is the Linux and Open Source way, and because standardisation is on the whole a good thing, and because over decades converging on the standards and thus reducing the amount of work that needs to be redone or breakages from other changes is A Good Thing. But I'm just an urban doctor, and would not wish to urge a timetable or a rush in this, just to hope the compass needle points that way and guides navigation a bit. -- Adrian Midgley http://www.defoam.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
