No, because it's just a wiki entry, and there's no way to check how it has been written. A well established process needs to be written (comparable to the Red Hat one that Ritesh wrote later in this thread). >> Note that I am convince the FSF initiative (I can't remember the ugly >> website name, sorry...) is *not* a correct response to this need.

I've been told multiple times that h-node was the HCL for Debian. First, the site is really ugly, and doesn't look serious. Then when you click on hardware, there's a list of "stuff" (scanners, webcams, etc.) but ... no servers! This really looks like laptop oriented to me. Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)
