Ubuntu and UserLinux to Combine?

Posted by timothy on from the plenty-of-u-to-go-around dept.

An anonymous reader submits "With all the noise about Ubuntu, and no sarge release in sight, we haven't heard much from UserLinux in recent times. Even Bruce Perens has admitted that the "lack of a Debian release is becoming a critical problem". Now, Ubuntu has invited UserLinux to combine forces. More distro consolidation -- without a corporate buyout in sight!"

  1. A management problem ? by foobsr · · Score: 0, Troll

    Part of this is due to the sheer ambitiousness of the Debian project. It attempts to do three times as much as any other distribution, and sometimes pulls it off.

    May this be due to lack of some "management" implementing a philosophy (maybe an equivalent of CI) of "less is more" by proper "human engineering"?

    P.S.: This definitely is not intended to be a troll.
