Thanks for the reply. I'm cc'ing other developers, so they can reconfirm their interest, if that's basically all thats' needed. I'll try to address some other concerns from #326213: In my opinion such a list would make lots of sense (#430536) and I wouldn't worry about the term "enterprise" too much. This might have made sense a couple of years ago but nowadays with every major distribution having a "enterprise" version out there (RHEL, SLES, Ubuntu) I'll just stick to this definition: >From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (27 SEP 03) [foldoc]: enterprise <body> A business, generally a large one. (1994-11-22) Putting all the bits and pieces together to make Debian work in large scale organizations should be the major topic on this list. I know of several people doing the same stuff (like xen backports, kernel fixes, JBoss packaging, etc.) over and over again to make Debian work in their "large scale organizations). This is basically a waste of time, let's join efforts. Another interesting topic for this list would be howto get vendor support. People have been discussing Debian support with large hardware and software vendors like EMC, Oracle or SAP for years now, it might be nice to have an "official" list on debian.org to exchange strategies and ideas on howto get this support. Large vendors are already heavily pointing towards Ubuntu for "enterprise ready" Debian based distributions.
