A Long Week

Not only have Jayne and I been juggling 3 of her sister’s kids while they’re away on holiday, also posted the project proposal for Indiana, with press coverage here and here. Not exactly the type of press coverage I would have hoped and almost certainly deserve what I get for suggesting that Ian should be a sole arbiter if a critical decision reached a roadblock – perhaps we’re not quite ready for that just yet. It was well intentioned, and I really do have my roots in community development (trust me). Still, for the most part the comments were positive, and I’m more convinced than ever that there is a need for this to happen. I of course share the same concerns as most – can we call it OpenSolaris? should we be discouraging other distributions by wanting it to be a reference distribution? where are the resource coming from?
Having thought about this solidly for the past 4 or 5 weeks, I do have some more concrete thoughts of what I think this should be rather than the intentionally vague outline in the project proposal. Drop me a line, tell me what you think – good or bad, I’m ready to listen.
