I had a long chat with the RM team about three weeks ago. It was still up and running then, however it will only run on Redhat.
Why specifically? It would be interesting to know what the specific dependencies are because if they are simply lack of sensible planning for open standards it needs highlighting. Or is it just its only guaranteed to run on RH?
The installer is generic - reading through it says : ##### not yet properly tested in SUSE or Debian ##### Though it would probably work with some tweaking. There are also other generic instructions in the readme for fedora etc. I don't see a problem with RM only supporting RHEL - There are so many distros around they couldn't support them all.
Why can't they support them all? Multiplatform technology is not rocket science, just common sense. I am writing Apache/PHP/MySQL applications that I know transfer seamlessly from my FreeBSD host with Konqueror clients to Windows hosts with IE clients. -- Christopher Dawkins Garnetts Corner, Braintree Road, Felsted, Dunmow, Essex CM6 3DS cchd@pjcd.org 07816 821659 01371 821076
