    Segment Two- Desktop Linux Distros, do we really need a standard one?– What is Bruce up to this time???

    Tonight we are going to have our old friend Bruce Perens on the show. We are going to
    discuss the effort by Bruce and a number of folks in creating a universal Desktop Distro
    of the Linux Kernel. This concept was announced a month ago at a Desktop Linux conference
    where he announced the
    creation of userlinux.com/. You may also want to read about
    another similar effort at http://freedesktop.org/~jg/roadmap.html

    Advance disclaimer. Some of us at TLS are not sold on this idea. That is why we thought
    it fair to invte Bruce and have him sell us on the idea. Please note that although we may not be
    convinced yet does not mean this is an adversarial situation. There is room for disagreements from
    time to time even with riends.

    If you are in a band or represent an artist, please contact
    us ASAP to be added to our play list.

    Please join us on the show, and check our IRC Chat
