The DCC Alliance (DCCA) was an industry association designed to promote a common subset of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system that multiple companies within the consortium could distribute. It was founded by Ian Murdock in 2005 and was wound up in 2007. ==History== The main force behind the DCC Alliance was Ian Murdock, the original founder of the Debian project. The DCC Alliance was formed whilst Murdock was CEO of Progeny Linux Systems, and he remained the key spokesperson for the consortium during their visible existence. The founding of the DCC Alliance was announced at LinuxWorld San Francisco on the 9 August 2005, following a number of pre-announcements. The stated intention was to assemble a standards-based core of Debian, provide a predictable release cycle and Linux Standards Base compliance.〔ZDNet News, (Consortium to push Debian to the fore ), 2005-07-26.〕 DCC Alliance shipped their first code 6 months after the original pre-announcements, providing a Linux Standards Base (LSB) 3.0 compliant set of program packages based on those available from Debian.〔Eweek, (DCC Alliance Leads Way to Linux Standard Base 3.0 Compliance ), 2005-12-08.〕 The Alliance's primary goals were to: *Assemble a 100 percent Debian common core that addresses the needs of enterprise business users *Maintain certification of the common core with the Free Standards Group open specification, the Linux Standard Base *Use the Alliance's combined strength to accelerate the commercial adoption of Debian *Work with the Debian project to ensure predictable release cycles and features important to commercial adoption 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「DCC Alliance」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
