Open-Source Milestone: UnitedLinux Ships (TechWeb)

[Posted November 20, 2002 by cook]

TechWeb reports on the release of UnitedLinux version 1.0. "UnitedLinux backers say the new common release -- which will compete most directly with Red Hat Linux, the most widely-used version of Linux in the enterprise -- will be welcome for its business focus and the strong support, training and certification programs backing it. Hardware vendors, including IBM and Hewlett-Packard, which participated in the announcement, like the consolidated operating system because it means they have to certify their hardware to fewer Linux distributions."
