Linux发行版Netwosix离我们而去

Goodbye, Netwosix. ------------------------------------------------------- Linux Netwosix was originally created with the goal of providing a security environment for building and creating new security-related solutions. With the passing of time I realized that the project has failed to achieve its goals within 3 years of hard work. This, among many reasons, is the most important because I never received help from anyone. Regardless of the fact that Netwosix has been downloaded by more than 60,000 users all around the world, I'm here to announce the shutting down of my dear project. Day after day I understand that I can't create a "valid security-oriented product" alone.

If people choose to join the project since I made this decision, I choose the way. I want to thank them but now I think that the most important thing to do is this. There are a lot of GNU/Linux distributions in the "arena" and I don't think that creating a new one every day is a good move for GNU/Linux itself. So I realized that it was better to help a well-known project to realize something really important and big.

For this reason I decided to move to Guardian Digital, one of the most important opensource security companies. It's really growing quickly. I will work on their EnGarde Secure Linux and in some way I am continuing to work on a really "secure" GNU/Linux distribution. There I can work with a lot of good hackers and it's a good possibility for me to exchange knowledge and improve my skills.

With this letter, I would like to thank everyone who did contribute to the project by downloading it and sending me many comforting and encouraging email and my apologies for the shutting down the project. I'd like to give my special thanks to Dave Wreski, CEO of Guardian Digital, and Ryan W. Maple for the great job position there.

Thanks, Vincenzo Ciaglia - Guardian Digital, Inc.
