As a novice I am very grateful that so many things are being aired here.

Allow two simple examples: 1 An international school in Paris will host a 
small IT conference. In reply to my proposal to share what Rule is doing to 
Redhat, the response was anything turning Redhat to Red nose has my vote. 2 
Mentioning what Rule is doing to Redhat on a Greek Linux list was dismissed 
with "Slackware already does it".

The first came from a group who knows little but wants to know more, the 
second from a very savvy bunch - re Linux.
