|
<P>The Linux community has known for some time that for many
|
|
applications, Linux is a stable, reliable, robust (although not
|
|
perfect) product. Unfortunately, there are still many people,
|
|
including key decision-makers, that are not aware of the existence of
|
|
Linux and its capabilities.
|
|
<P>If Linux and the many other components that make up a Linux
|
|
distribution are to reach their full potential, it is critical that we
|
|
reach out to prospective ``customers'' and advocate (being careful not
|
|
to promise too much) the use of Linux for appropriate applications.
|
|
The reason that many a company's products have done well in the
|
|
marketplace is not so much due to the product's technical superiority
|
|
but the company's marketing abilities.
|
|
<P>If you enjoy using Linux and would like to contribute something to
|
|
the Linux community, please consider acting on one or more of the
|
|
ideas in this mini-HOWTO and help others learn more about Linux.
