Today you released another version of your acclaimed Knoppix live cd, the third new release in just a few weeks. It is really great! I appreciate it!
I feel you're really doing many people a big service with this, most of all the universities that so kindly have offered to mirror the Knoppix iso's providing local access to their students who use knoppix.
In my perception the current release speed is quite refreshing compared to other linux distos: people can be assured that there's constant attention for bugfixing. If this release flurry is aimed at keeping Knoppix high on the news sections of the best visited Linux websites, and getting reviews all the time, I think you are succeeding splendidly and I am not above firing back a supportive comment.
Users and webmasters alike will possibly never tire of mr. Knoppers many releases, allowing them to choose which updates/bugfixes to download by simply scanning the change log text file.
And I must admit that this is something I truly admire about Knoppix. It's a great live CD, and I guess that many people try to install Knoppix on their harddisk as well. It does a great job in promoting Linux, and I really feel Knoppix can make a difference for Linux as an instrument to give any microsoft windows user an alternative to his Windows box.
So please mr. Knopper (if you read this forum at all), accept my deepest gratitude, and continue with your cutting edge release calendar.
Even with one release every three months or so you'd still beat each and every distro out there in terms of being "bleeding edge". I don't see how your releases could attract any more attention then they do now.
A few final thoughts: I believe you have made great strides in furthering the "Linux Case" with your Knoppix product. I feel you have been wise to put so much effort into making Knoppix easier to install to harddisk. If someone (like paul_nl maybe?) wanted to write a nice and solid gui installer that offers some choice to the user, you would gladly put it in the next update. Of note are the other linux live distros you have inspired such as Morphix which allows for users to upgrade and customize their live cd (based on Knoppix) with an extensive module repository. It is an awesome tool.
kind regards
