>Greetings from Jim Dennis</H3>
|
|
<!-- begin greeting -->
|
|
<strong>I've been thinking about Linux. And about those penguins.
|
|
Need a better mascot. Cats. Cats are cute. Cats go everywhere.
|
|
Except Antarctica.
|
|
We're smarter than that. But penguins - they <em>live</em> there. Hsss!
|
|
Besides, penguins are birds. Birds are snacks. Cats have been on the
|
|
internet far longer.
|
|
Everyone knows <a href="http://lynx.isc.org/current/">lynx</a> was one of
|
|
the first hunters here. We already have three Linux disties anyway
|
|
(<a href="http://www.bluecat.com/">BlueCat</a>,
|
|
<a href="http://www.blackcatlinux.com/">BlackCat</a>, and
|
|
<a href="http://www.bluepoint.com.cn/">BluePoint</a>).
|
|
Cats are the purrrrrfect mascot for the new Linux.
|
|
</strong>
|
|
|
|
<p>Hmm. I had a pretty darn good blurb written up about cool new stuff in
|
|
2.4 (still in the pre phase right now) but when I came back to my chair after
|
|
getting coffee, my cat had taken over the chair and was sitting there,
|
|
purring <em>innocently</em>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>As I lack the time to do it over (again!) here you go. See you next
|
|
month.</p>
