    Check this out!

    It's available already, according to the article.

    Jeos (pronounced juice) is an acronym, meaning Just Enough Operating System, but maybe the wizards at Canonical aren’t up on their Google, because there’s already a Java project with that name.

    It says it is available on the news release. Where is it available? Google produces only news links, ubuntuforum search leads to this thread, search on ubuntu's or canonical's site gets nothing. I do NEED this product!! Looks great!!

    I am right in the middle of a project now trying to install a minimal Debian Etch Host OS.

    Would be great to find a link to where this 'JUICE' can be downloaded!

    Just read this over at theregister.com -> Main Story

    One thing that urks me.
    Code:
    Canonical is still in the midst of deciding whether not to make JeOS wildly available, since it's mostly meant as an ISV thang.

    Whether or not to make is available? It better be available! There is no deciding about it. Either in the beta areas or "hey look! see where Ubuntu is going now" area. Some at the top better go look at the Ubuntu motto AGAIN.

    I had never interpreted the Canonical commitment to say that everything they do would be free. Ubuntu desktop. server, Kubuntu, Xubuntu and Edubuntu seem to be a very full suite of free products. Its totally up to them whether anything else is released for no cost. I understand that Launchpad isn't free. I'd far rather see Canonical successful than commited to serving my needs for nothing and then whithering away. They are going to need a herd of cash cows sooner or later.

    And what do you think "wildly available" would be if it did happen? Maybe it means released into the wild but you have to track it down and kill it if you want it.

    I agree with Aubrey on this one. You don't see them giving away free Ubuntu T-Shirts and free Ubuntu mugs either.

    There are two mistakes one can make along the road to truth...not going all the way, and not starting.
