RE: [cobalt-users] Cobalt End of Life'd, What's next?

Hey mate ;-) Long time no hear Ryan!

I've heard of the project... Sounds interesting.

But... How does it compare to something like a Raq550?

I presume it is based on the Cubes open source release?

Howdy Skeeve,

I've got a project called Qbalt (http://www.sf.net/projects/qbalt) which
I'll be releasing soon; it's a GPL replacement for Cobalt's; runs on
both white boxes, and current Cobalt hardware.  It's based on Debian,
with an entirely new web interface.

There's various RaQ/Qube clones around the place, but I haven't seen
anything yet that comes anywhere near to Cobalt's offering.

I don't think Sun are planning on anything to replace the Cobalt's.
