Hi Ken,

>policy?

By and large, yes.  We routinely test on RedHat WS3 and Fedora Core 2
and 3.  We do not have other distributions in-house, so our ability
to guarantee that our packages run on them is limited.

>We will choose whichever distribution you recommend that best

>Can you please give us an update.

Right now, we spend most of our time running under Fedora Core 2/3.

Cheers,

Tom
