This site is to provide users of Oracle Unbreakable Linux, with a friendly meeting place to exchange tips, ideas, etc to get the maximum use out of using Unbreakable Linux. We here at Gcclinux Group feel that Oracle's announcement to provide and support Unbreakable Linux is a major breakthrough for all business owners including small/home office users who have a major need to run an enterprise quality distribution, but have been unable due to pricing schemes. Oracle's decision has leveled the playing field for all business users, and we fully plan on supporting this endeavor in any way shape or form possible. With that we invite you to pull up a seat, brows the forums, check out the rpms built for Unbreakable Linux. You'll find us a friendly lot, who are willing to help out any way possible.

Regards,

The GccLinux Group!

So, WTF happened here?

A number of us have been waiting patiently for GccLinux to be released. A couple of weeks ago the website simply just dissapears with no explanation and GccLinux falls off the face of the earth.

I Google it today and I find this site. I think an explanation is required.

James,

Good talking to you again! I know it's quite a shock, and Ricardo and I both have had many a long night trying to figure out exactly what direction we should go in, as both us, in the very late spring, early part of summer got wrapped up in new day jobs....I was actually the luckier one, as I didn't get assigned in a foreign country like Ricardo did.

Neither one of wanted to pursue continuing our continued development of Gcclinux Desktop, with our work schedules being what they were or seperately....just because we didn't know what we were looking at down the road. As a matter of of fact, at one point I think Ricardo, and I had stopped completely talking for I don't know 4 to 6 months. Oracle's announcement actually got us talking again, and I've know I've actually spoken to some folks very close to JDS who thought, we should do something for Unbreakable, as they actually felt that their company blew it by not continuing with the development of JDS.

Shocking, Disappointing...Yes but you sometimes have to roll with the punches life gives you. And since you know how I think, Do I believe in a basic Gnone only desktop?...Yes is still my answer (not to discredit in any way the fine work that the KDE folks do, or are developing, I just never used it a whole lot).
