You're kidding me...
linux.org
linux.com (ewwww, way to cluttered these days)
linuxhq.org
linuxhq.com (looks like their undergoing a facelift)
I seem to remember someone saying that PG is supposed to be leaning towards
being more like a "kernel" so I would like one day the site might become
conceptually like linux.org in the sense that they point you toward the various
distributions of Linux.
Comments?
