The UNL will be inconsistent as a few of messages has already pointed out.
Moreover, is this suppose to be the project of some freshman? The web page is messed up; there are lots of errors. One of the lines says "How to joint the UNL Community" on page http://www.unl.ias.unu.edu/eng/unlhp-e. html. I find a few by just looking at it. I think the people who are responsible for ths do not even care. The pages are poorly coded (made by some win9x program) and pictures look distorted. They did not even give an explanation of how will it be done.
There've been many heroines (servers) in the history of Linuxdom. However, there weren't too many heros (Workstations, PCs) in the history of Linuxdom. Leon
Japan is a developed country; its people have enough money to pay for their own computer and software. The open source charactoristic doesn't give much advantage over those heavily commercialized OS's. Moreover, those OS's can easily fight back by innovating or lowering of their prices.
What Linux distributions should focus on are those developing countries. In many of those countries, the piracy rate is so high that it literally effects the nation's economy. Linux can be cheaply distributed in those countries and easily replace their pirating market. The success of this will benefit both the developing country and Linuxdom.
