Meeting Notes for December 9, 2006

Set up for Development

Whil Hentzen continued his "Newbie" series with a presentation on his setup for a development environment on an FC6 system with LAMP (linux/ apache/ mySQL/ PHP), which services he turns off, and configuration of Apache and mySQL. The presentation is here: http://www.hentzenwerke.com/wp/fc6_devws.htm

Discussions on Distros

Discussion / Defense of reasons for selection of a given distribution:

  • it's what I tried first and I'm used to it — I know the directory structure, where files are located, etc.
  • it has everything I need out of the box: mail, office tools, other applications and services.
  • depends whether I'm a command line or GUI kind of guy.
  • how easy it is to configure on installation: a good default configuration vs. complete control over all options, and everything in between.
  • horror stories: "I tried XXXX but it ...."

RedHat/FC, SUSE, and *ubuntu were mentioned in this discussion.

Novell/MSFT deal

The Novell/ Microsoft agreement has received a lot of trade press lately. There were no overwhelmingly negative or positive reactions from individuals in this group.

Other topics

Discussions on remote mail access and upcoming meeting topics ended the meeting, with 26 in attendance.
