You are exactly right. Red Hat is trying to figure out what to do with those products. We don't want to just dump a pile of code on the OS community. For one, the code has some third party stuff that we need to replace with OS components. For another, these products are very hard to build outside the "walled garden". Lastly, there have been some changes to standards and markets since these products were actively developed that need to be accounted for. But you better believe that Red Hat knows how valuable these products could be to the market and the OS community. > > - Jeff > > Leif Hedstrom wrote: > >> jclowser at unitedmessaging.com wrote: >> >>> While I've got your ear, how about the Calendar Server? :) >> >> >> >> >> Oh dear god, not the Calendar Server... >> >> -- leif > > > -- > Fedora-directory-users mailing list > Fedora-directory-users at redhat.com > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-directory-users -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
