Of course not. When deciding what to use in the next project, you have to advocate your choice in front of your superiors and colleagues, and your presentation should be well backed up with technical arguments.=20 When I advocate FreeBSD over Windows, for example, there are some very clear and easily defendable technical and economical advantages (open source, absence of viruses, BSD license - just to name a few). It is not so easy with FreeBSD vs Linux. For example, the absence of Docker (or analogous technology) for FreeBSD is a huge disadvantage. We need to name really superiour features to make up for this shortage. > You start making comparisons, then you have to list all possible Linux > distros, etc, you know the drill. In fact, there is quite a limited number of Linux distros to be considered for use in production, maybe 3-4, and they are not that different in their capabilities. Other distros are too exotic or geeky. --=20 Victor Sudakov, VAS4-RIPE, VAS47-RIPN 2:5005/49@fidonet http://vas.tomsk.ru/ --bp/iNruPH9dso1Pn Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEbBAEBAgAGBQJeRqugAAoJEA2k8lmbXsY0/6wH90HlWUjLg04ID9xYIQCWI0JQ PYPB9u7+rkMsovvwiLFBXccUjq6Oc6bAnh3v1OFZ3UP5xK795kRw8sbNZoaLLnsq CO5DlzVHHDil3HtMuAkMHziodCCwOfCEa6xylR02tZgt2RXHJs74N44PfpuygR26 Rt7EeP7zZZw7K4zUedP3H1C1FXPcq0gou+Ilh8HYoH+q5sEh85qPICgXsHmUsqA6 PZ8o91NNCbtaGj1AaQRh8x+MwiLCOkQnqG9djS6fQi/nOLAHvsX3Y7/Y5vV6Ny3O cr+mu5e8JGANh2lyEixn2AYZ9RdJ6ixTF0fRu7y140m24J/tKh8+gxVL1ZCRrA== =nkRq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --bp/iNruPH9dso1Pn--
