11:27 PM EST 		Hi,

I think there are waaay too many opinions based on one's own preferences and bias to try and create this database.

My 2c is that we should create multiple matrixes of distro's each based and for a different market/user for example: Multimedia desktop users and Programmers and Office workers etc.

Then we can start to objectively classify each distro according to its virtues to these communities. We have to accept that not everyone is a hobbyist. I still use MS on my desktops but always have one Linux-flavour or another running on my spare PC for testing etc.

Unless you over looked the red underline underneath "cvlassification", you must not be using FireFox v2. Just in case you didn't know, It has pretty nice spell checker . I am very bad speller myself, I guess that is why I appreciate this feature so much.
