Re: Linux Ghandigiri - Invitations for Everyone!
Guys, IMHO, I don't think we need to create another distro, I'll tell you why:
We all understand the level of empowerment that Linux has given us, the level of customization, modification and integration. Today Linux has given us the power to make our own operating system! And that's what most of us are discussing here, about making our own distro. But lets just take a step back and think about this........
....... aren't there enough distros out there that is leading to confusion to newcomers, do we really need to add another distro to that? I mean the reason we all want a distro is because we all believe that we can make something more better, something more easy to use, something more user friendly and honestly, this is what every new distro makers think, they think they can make something better and end up adding another distro to the already big list. Rather if we all try to concentrate to make something which already exists better, then I think linux is going to catch up to mainstream users everywhere.
So, rather than making something new, lets concentrate on making existing distros better by trying to make even the smallest difference we can. Let's make apps that are non existent. Imagine what would have happenned if the Mac4Lin project was a distro and not just the app which can be added to linux? Then we would have been like, grrrrr.. I want ubuntu but I want Mac4Lin as well. I hope you get the point that I'm trying to make. So, rather than making something new by making a new distro, lets make something new by making something for existing distros.
I hope my point is understandable.
. ahem. . . well , i did not mean that way , but i feel we indians need one
