Done?
Done and I'm in the exact same case as the author (regarding to the needs, I don't have the same knowledge :-)
Long story short, I personally believe that the only viable option is "openSUSE LTS", but it does bring some technical challenges which require a certain number of committed contributors working on the maintenance.
I really concur with Wolfgang's idea/proposal to start off with a server-oriented subset/core of openSUSE and try to keep that maintained for half a year or more, and learn from that experience to see whether we can realistically take on doing that for a longer period of time.
Ideas, (constructive) criticism? :)
I think most sensible products already have a running and fixed version (at the source level at least). can't you have apache 2 bug free? postfix? patched kernel? What I know is that I *have* at hand, thanks to my provider work, a running kernel for as long as I want (it's the same for all the installed distros). * first hint: ask host provider for help, they already do a part of the work (and source have to be available). my only real experience is for php scripts: wikis, photo galleries, and the update is done by the application developper, it's just a manner of running some scripts to apply them. the forst task is to list the really basic unavoidable applications :-) thanks jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://pizzanetti.fr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
