UnitedLinux Launches partner program [LWN.net]

Defying rumors of its death, UnitedLinux has announced a new partner program for independent systems vendors. The program allows vendors to get their products certified as "UnitedLinux Ready," use a special logo, and be listed on the UnitedLinux web site. It will be interesting to see what the level of uptake is.

Here's a quote from the PR: "ISVs interested in self-certification will obtain a current version of UnitedLinux -- a free, downloadable developer's version of UnitedLinux for testing purposes is available from the UnitedLinux Website's Developer's Zone." It would seem that SCO, whose name appears several times in the release, has not completely stopped distributing Linux.

Now SuSE, et al, knows what it's like being a conjoined twin whose sibling has died. Icky.

I think a better analogy would be a conjoined twin that is behaving like a complete jerk. I'm really surprised that SuSE hasn't cut loose from SCO.
