In other words, it's great for deploying at companies when
you can't be around -- like most small consultants are for at
small companies.
The last time I checked out work on SME, a number of Debian
users were complaining that it should be Debian based. I
have like Debian (Murdock's attitudes, used to be a
maintainer too, etc...), but I thought it was rather
self-defeating to move away from all the work that had
already been done for the Red Hat Linux / RPM lineage.
Especially since those people were not very into the existing
codebase (or support).
I think it's great that they are going to base it on CentOS
4!
And I'm glad to hear there is an Alpha test available.
