the "bring unices together" technical and social project

+
+ +

Motivation

+There are many different Unix versions ("Unices") out there today. +As a +FOSS +developer I interact with many different developers, who, like me, use many +different versions of Unix. +Many parts of each Unix are beeing reinvented over and over again, which is not +bad in general (things are beeing improved). +The question is: +Why should one Unix not use the advantages another Unix has? +The other motivation is to reduce the gap between different Unices: So +a Unix admin can easily use and hack for Unix B, if she only knows Unix A. +Thus, if she creates a cool feature for Unix A to speedup the boot process +to last only 0.5 seconds, she can submit it to developers of Unix C to Z. + +

Ideas and status

+There are already many ongoing efforts in this direction (see below +for examples), but this is a different idea: It's a platform for Unixers + + +independently of the Unix (they|you) are using! +

As most Unixers like easy to use interfaces, I chose to create +a new mailing list +(just because I think that newsreaders suck more than MUAs). +The difference to existing projects is, that it is not focussed +

+Nor is the idea of this project to create a + +Unix. +What this project may possibly be able to do is + +So, written enough for now: + + + +

Examples

Some projects I'm aware of, which bring together Unices: +
