Hello my friends,
After discussion with some friends of mine who run their business, a question came up.
Well, live dvd is OK for a small business to cover the office needs but there's a need for some special software such as ERP or financial or accountant software.
So, as we have openSUSE medical and openSUSE LiFE, is it possible to cover also some small businesses? Here in Greece we have a goal to do something with the medical for starters (since I'm more familiar with it).
Another idea that came up to me, is to create another remastered distro based on openSUSE with some CAD software.
There might be some on SUSE Studio but need a team that will support them. So people, what do you say?
My advice is that specificity makes a difference. There's been discussions since time began for such a project as you are thinking of. But no one moves forward on it. What I would suggest is get started with the first step. Create a wiki page with listing the goal of this project and the unique features this project should include. Then get a version going using SUSE Studio, and make one simple quick and dirty with some of the stuff you are thinking bout that should be included. The result is people will have something real to look at and offer their contributions. You'll get much better returns than opening up with a simple discussion as doing here. That's the best way, imo, to move it forward and I think you have a good idea here. Just needs a first step. :-) Bryen M Yunashko -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
