  An anonymous readers writes "Infoworld is running a
  report [1] on the Desktop Linux Conference, at which
  Bruce Perens suggested that in order to get Linux to the
  enterprise desktop, the Linux community should base their
  efforts on one single distribution... based on Debian.
  Perens went on to say that enterprises will be willing to
  pay Linux companies to engineer versions of Linux to suit
  their needs, but that the base distro should remain free.
  He suggested that by 2006, 30% of enterprise desktops
  will run Linux." Here is a wired story [2] with more
  information about his proposed UserLinux project.
