Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Time to evangelize VA Linux

that's true, i didn't read the article.  so i went back, read it and realized that it's still not such a good idea.

va linux won't be pushing the latest postgres/OpenACS systems.  you'll be getting versions that are probably way behind the latest releases.  so my problem is that i envision people getting OpenACS 3.2.x and potgresql 6.5.x.

that's kinda pessimistic, but i have a feeling that VA won't be focusing on providing the latest software for those that are customizing their systems.

also, there was no response to my suggestion of selling boxes from the openacs site.  the customer would be getting a brand spankin' new box with the latest releases and the latest docs for setting it up.  and there would be truer customization, if what they're looking for is an acs box.
