	Hi  --

	I have not read the Technocrat article you linked.  Linux One has been
the subject of quite a few mentions on Linux Today, in the last month or
so;  In fact, I think there was one on there yesterday (Mon. 1/10).  If
you look at Linux Today for this   (  http://linuxtoday.com/   ) , maybe
also you will find their link to, I think it was, a Linux World article
of about 3 or 4 weeks ago;  I remember it seemed to be a somewhat
in-depth discussion of Linux One.  (As you can tell, Linux Today is
usually a daily stop for me.)  I think maybe SlashDot had something,
also, in the last few days to week or 2.  Myself, I don't know anything
about Linux One, except what I've read on the Net.  Best to all. -- Doug
