[Solar-general] Mark Shuttleworth Answers At Length

[Ricardo Markiewicz]

Hola todos, en Slashdot [1] salio una entrevista a Mark Shuttleworth ,
el dueño de Canonical, empresa que desarrolla Ubuntu. Creo que dado
los ultimos threads les será útil a varios.

Algunas cosas de las que se discutieron por esta lista : (resumidas)

/. : I read that you guys are rebuilding your own version of all the
debian packages you use instead of using vanilla debian

Ma.S. : Yes, we import every package from Debian as well as .deb
packages from a lot of other sources that you can find on apt-get.org

/. : How does Canonical plan on making money?
Ma.S. : Canonical provides support for Ubuntu, but more importantly we
provide support for companies that provide support for Ubuntu. The
idea is to create an ecosystem of people who collaborate on the free
software


saludos
