Hi
Media shipping is only an interim problem, for future community should
look ahead to lobby with public/private network service providers.
Only if u live in a country that population has full broadband access..is a
point of view
that didnt look to undeveloped places....
No I don't live in a developed country, I had even downloaded first
few Fedora releases on GPRS connections. Only got DSL recently when I
had to move to a big city for my job.
Digital Break is not an interim problem for undeveloped countries.
Easy way
to not reconized
that sometimes the "competitor" is better than us., mature of a community is
learn the best things
from other projects too, and shipping cds is a big "interim" feature.
Personally, if I can get contributors from business schools world wide
to come up with a unique model to supply community media I will sure
count that as big feature, that could even compete network optimized
software delivery, and I'll be glad to see competitors adopt that
human network break through as well.
Anyway, for an Enterprise than Red Hat that cost 15.000.000 in NYSE,
could
not be a problem
became equal than shuttleworth to promote fedora in free ship CDs....
see the world with the same eyes all the time, dont put us forward to
people, the main reason for Free Software.
really sad about this opinions....really dissapointed indeed....
probably was a mistake return to the project....
I speak for me and community that I enjoy and I did not mention Red
Hat or Shuttleworth. Anyways I owe you lot here, it strikes me that
even Ubuntu community should be equally interested to work with
Fedora's to come up with network optimized media delivery :-)
I hope that will be kept in mind if community takes any further
interest in such future features.
Cheers,
Kevin
