Hello. I'm glad you mention it. Project X was an idea too that I wanted to
share about the creation of kenya's first distributable Open Source
Corporate solution ( a commercial concept ). I even went into all the
details of how the suggested work flow would work. There was some interest
but my serious handicap was that I'm not a developer ( give me a few years )
nor did I get any feedback from developers. The project is still open to
anyone who'd want to implement it. I know of a brazilian company who would
have easily done it for me at a cost ( including private labelling ) but
this is not my interest and that would defeat its creation. In brazil ( I've
never been there ), open source solutions have a very strong market
presence and many companies customize them.
A recap of Project X : create a local distribuatble DVD linux/freebsd
solution to contain Mail Server, Firewall Server, Squid Server, 2 Network
card Interfaces, NDIS, NTLM or OLDAP, Web Interface etc.
Sales : Distribute the DVD to super markets or any outlets. Purchase cost is
eg Ksh 300/-. Silly self install system DVD, anyone can create a full server
in a matter of minutes, no foss knowledge or experience required. ( ISO
installer )
Support : Annual support billable. This revenue would create chances for new
developers while existing developers would get revenue. This also creates a
professional approach to offering the above.
I moved on to other things in my personal time so I hope someone will
implement it one day... :-)
