I think these are fantastic additions to Lxer. I'd like to see more of these say...with ClarkConnect (my fav solution like this) and other distro developers. It really puts a human face onto those distros and gives angles we've never thought about. |

> ...with ClarkConnect (my fav solution like this) and other distro developers. That would be good. Warren Woodford is probably good for a number of articles with enticing headlines. :) Texstar would probably make a good interview. And I'd love to see an interview with Patrick Volkerding too, but then I'm biased. |

I also think that these kinds of interviews are a great addition to LXer. It's nice to read about companies that are doing things right. I always remain hopeful for the human species because, despite the media's propensity to dwell on the bad/negative news (because it sells??), there are a lot of positive things going on in the world. We just have to dig a little bit more to find out about. Actually LXer does post a lot of good news stories about new software releases and the like. Remain positive! :-) |

"I always remain hopeful for the human species because, despite the media's propensity to dwell on the bad/negative news (because it sells??)" Yeah :( When I'm filling in for Brian at Linux Today I know that two words in the article headlines will guarantee a lot of hits: Windows and Ubuntu. Oh, and anything that relates to "sucks." Sadly, Windows stories usually rank the highest. I look for good Linux stories anyway and keep the windows crud to a bare minimum, but it still bothers me. |

devnet and beirwin: Thank You for the compliments, and the ideas for more interviews. 'Positive' news is a little harder to find, but it is worth it every time. There are good people, who own businesses, volunteer time and energy to a FOSS project or any number of other things and they deserve to get some good press when it comes their way. Obviously I will not always be interviewing business people but I wanted everyone to know that I certainly will be interviewing more than just one. :-) |
