[Bug 1] Re: Microsoft has a majority market share

[Wolfgang Glas]

I appreciate it very much, that the sabdfl has started work on this
issue ;-)

Unfortunately, this bug is blocked by a large number of pertaining
quality issues in ubuntu distributions. (flash/amd64 mess, extremely
varying sound/hibernation mileage with each distro upgrade,  closed-
source display drivers destabilizing the kernel and not implementing the
latest X.org features, just to mention the most painful ones....)

Moreover, it is impossible to get a support contact with canonical or
someone else, which assures, that such nasty issues are fixed within a
reasonable time.

To sum up, I think there's a lot of work for the sabdfl in the field of
better cooperation with hardware vendors and finding a Linux desktop
business model, which allows to buy more service than a friendly
installation support, which helps you to work around well-known bugs.

My personal opinion is, that it turned out to be impossible to assure a
reasonable distro quality within a six-month release period. The
stabilization period for a distribution, which *really* hits the masses
probably needs to be substantially longer.

  Best regards and good look in your bug#1 efforts,

   Wolfgang
