| ViperFox | Is there anyone that is currently still here today? | 10:30 |
|---|---|---|
| infinity | Maybe? | 10:31 |
| ViperFox | ha | 10:31 |
| ViperFox | nice | 10:31 |
| ViperFox | I am looking to start a new subset team of the server team to help bring Ubuntu to light in the business world | 10:31 |
| infinity | Like a server marketing team or something? | 10:32 |
| ViperFox | No | 10:32 |
| infinity | Then you're going to need to be more specific. :) | 10:32 |
| ViperFox | I have several ideas to work from and a direction | 10:32 |
| infinity | We're already heavily used "in the business world", and where we're not, it's usually a lack of marketing. | 10:32 |
| ViperFox | I want to help bring ubuntu into the Small and Medium business market | 10:33 |
| infinity | Okay. I'm guessing this means "GUI configuration"? | 10:34 |
| infinity | Do you have any specs written up? Any code to back it up, or people who want to write the code? | 10:34 |
| ViperFox | Thats why I am here, I would like to find intrest in helping me start this idea rolling | 10:35 |
| infinity | You're unlikely to find it, sadly. | 10:35 |
| infinity | It comes up every 2 days. And I'm not exaggerating. | 10:35 |
| infinity | Plenty of people *want* it, no one is really interested in implementing it. | 10:35 |
| infinity | And it's not high on Canonical's list of things to sink time and money into. | 10:36 |
| ViperFox | Hmm...that is sad, i have been working with Ubuntu over the last 18 months and have loved it for my own use, but sadly have not be able to find enough "Micrsoft" equivilents out there to go along with it, I am aiming to have a soultion to that of Microsoft SBS 2003 | 10:38 |
| ViperFox | there are already alot of good starting points for this, but sadly most are not easy enough to use to "take to market" persay | 10:38 |
| ViperFox | I just feel that if the Small to Medium Business Market could be broken into with something that works similar to the Microsoft products that Ubuntu would greatly increase its presence not only in the Business community but also the Consumer market | 10:40 |
| ViperFox | So what kind of project is the Server team handling currently, mostly Enterprise Class soultions? | 10:44 |
| infinity | Yeah, just making sure that the server stuff we ship actually works, and working on enterprise-class clustering and such. | 10:44 |
| ViperFox | thats fantastic | 10:44 |
| ViperFox | I dont think that for my project alot of GUI would need to even be created | 10:45 |
| ViperFox | Might be just as well off to use cross-platform intergration with windows client machines thus the human interface is already known, the backend just needs to be there | 10:46 |
| ViperFox | Im looking to only really improve on technologies that already exsist | 10:47 |
| ViperFox | Well...I shall look eles where though, thank you for your time | 10:48 |
