(who definitely knows what he's talking about) reports that Fedora's
stock configuration will use Yum (functionally equivalent to Debian's
apt-get) extensively. This is a Good Thing, and should be better than
up2date was anyway. As far as how Fedora goes overall, we'll have to
wait and see.
Lee, picking one "blesses" OpenACS Linux distribution? That might be
nice, but could we ever actually agree on one? I doubt it. :)
More practical might be to have a FAQ answer including some sort of
survey results saying "Experienced OpenACS users typically use:" and
then break down the results by OS distribution (Read Hat, Debian,
FreeBSD, Solaris, etc.) I think that would give the new OpenACS user
most of what he wants to know. We've already had several informal
suveys of that sort from all the Forums threads on Linux distribution
X vs. Y, after all...
