There's a number of efforts underway to create a standardized Linux, and
only by combining our efforts can we succeed.

UN?  WHY?!  AAMOF, I've been talking with Erik Walthensen, and we plan on
contacting Linux International to see if they'd be willing to join the
fray.  Advertising Linux is really important, and Linux could flog NT if
we just advertised it.  It's also VERY expensive.  All of the Linux
community would benefit from it.  Hopefully LI will be willing to assist.
TTYL!
