I submit that Debian is just as polished as anything else out on the market.
And while we are at it, what is going to be the real outcome of this effort? Business acceptance? I don't know about that, I think this is already happening.
You know what I think? Energies would be better spent trying to standardize GNU/Linux as a whole...not saying one distro over the rest, but how things are done within each distro to include the GUI. Personally, I think this is the true problem that the corporate world will have.
You know what pisses me off? I know that Linux is the best solution, but when I try to introduce it to typical users, their resistance is truly justified. You still have to be a geek to make simple things happen.
You know what else? The presumption that the choices can not be made and standardized on by the IT staff.
I don't think UserLinux will go anywhere, I believe the market will play this out, and I also think that the reasoning behind the Project is BS. Put your efforts where it is really needed...
