EU OS: Which Linux Distribution fits Europe best?
Quoting: EU OS: Which Linux Distribution fits Europe best? | ~rriemann —
Soon, the EU OS project celebrates its first anniversary. I want to seize the occasion (and your attention) before the Christmas holidays to share my personal view on the choice of the Linux distribution as a basis for EU OS. EU OS is so far a community-led initiative to offer a template solution for Linux on the Desktop deployments in corporate settings, specifically in the public sector.
Only few weeks ago, the EU OS collaborators tested together a fully functional Proof of Concept (PoC) with automatic provisioning of laptops and central user management. The documentation of this setup is to 90% complete and should be finalized in the coming weeks. This PoC relies on Fedora, which is the one aspect that triggered the most attention and criticism so far.
I recall that EU OS has so far no funding and only few contributors. Please check out the project Gitlab, join the Matrix channel, or send me an email to help or discuss funding. So in my view, EU OS can currently accomplish its mission best by bringing communities and organisations together to use their existing resources more strategically than now.
