Hello Jacob,
It's wonderful. I was initially saved from RHEL's crazy pricing by
WhiteBox Linux. It was fun intil it became clear that they weren't
intending to be as progressive and reactive as CentOS, and so now I'm
here. I too feel it is important to give a little when you can, and
yesterday did the same. Hopefully that helps keep things moving..
