So long story short, they are doing the same thing as UserLinux, but might have more potential since this is not a one man show. Not that one man shows can't change the world too, but still. Anyway, I think this is a more interesting comparison than saying it's UnitedLinux born again.

I guess that UserLinux can also join LCC but maybe that could be a little hard if Debian doesn't joins first. Perens (we know you read LWN ;) ) what is your opinion on this?

I agree; it's too bad that the interviewer didn't ask them about UserLinux and get comments on that; that would have been more useful than UnitedLinux comments.

NOT UserLinux

Nope. UserLinux is a full-on linux distro. A reference implementation
of LSB is much less. It includes only the core packages that
are required by the LSB, and very little else.
