[問] Is it the best interest for Red Flag to base their system on Debian instead?

Currently Red Flag bases its system on Red Hat, which is not as free, far less versatile, much smaller software repository, more difficult to maintain and upgrade than Debian.

I just wonder whether it is the best interest for Red Hat to switch to Debian instead.

It can just use the Debian repository (without wasting its resources to make a new distribution) and just develop a custom installer, which has tasks for the installation of Chinese environment (printing, input, display etc,) and possibly a custom kernel (with extra security feature such as NE and SELinux) and a SELinux-compliant toolchain. Red Flag can just base its system on the most recent stable version (Sarge at present). This would be sufficient since the release cycle of Debian proper would be considerbly faster than before.

[問] Can the public libraries lend the Debian to the readers?

I want to recommend the public libraries in Hong Kong to buy the softwares of Debian so that the readers can borrow the software and manual. The copy may be the one that can be downloaded for the internet freely.
However, I would like to clarify the issue of copyright whether the reader
can freely duplicate and install the software. I think it is a good way to
promote the use of linux as it can be introduced to the people. Please
kindly reply.

白羊座(03/21 - 04/19)

今年初會有很多不錯的機會，值得好好把握。對工作或專業上的第六感與敏銳度更加增強了，對於職務或工作大環境的變化隨時都能掌控，但是千萬別操之過急，讓自己壓力過重，事業方面，2005年七月十六日以前，你的工作掌管星土星仍在巨蟹座，代表家人或是辦公室的問題雖然困擾人，不過七月十六日以後、土星將由第四宮轉至第五宮獅子座，白羊座如果能夠在事業上有些新的發現、創意，特別是對於孩子有關或是在意於娛樂事業，對你大利，而且可寓工作於娛樂中!
