If you haven’t noticed, yet, many of my recent developments have been for, and regarding Debian.

A current client is a RedHat Enterprise 4, CentOS, FreeBSD, and Debian shop, with Debian being on the front end. As the key systems are integrated to a unified OS approach, one of the most important aspects is to keep your front end systems up to date with security, first and foremost, then consistant features (with the legacy, where appropriate), and finally, new bells and whistles.

This ensures your deliverability; I can’t understand how large companies like YouTube manage to redirect people to a page saying ‘Sorry, guys, it’s that time of the week again. Everything’s down for a few hours.’

That’s awful design, and incredibly useless if your whole product is reliant on actually being available to make money.

Yet, I digress. This is now “Web 2.0” where the game seems to be “content over form.” All hail the new Emperor.. just as soon as he finishes touching up his body paint.
