i was starting to like that distro before, then it was discontinued, then i found that piece of news today http://arabicos.com/html/plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?206

the main point that took my attention is that the reasons they say that they failed are:

  1. one man work, not a team work
  2. no development planning, or in other words, they just make a new distro when they find something to put in it

i hate those failure moments, but i take advantage of them to correct my next projects (even it wasn't me who failed, i didn't participate in arabian from the beginning). so i just wanted to share those thoughts with you

يا احمد انا قلت الكلام ده لمسلم"المؤسس للتوزيعة" قال انه شغال في arabian 2007 وفعلا نزل نسخة USB "Arabian Linux 2007 USB Edition"وقال ان النسخة الام فضلها كام يوم.

بس اعتقد انها مش حتكمل كتير لانه ربطها بنفسه وده غلط.

Procrastination is the thief of time.

i thought that

i thought that arabicos.com is their official site, and when i found that news on it i thought it's true.. that's why i said that.. but anyway, they must have a corrective action.

I am sure he didn't stop

I am sure he didn't stop anyone from contributing. It's just that most people don't want to invest the huge effort needed to build a livecd.

مشروع لتوزيعة

المفروض ان في مشروع لتوزيعة تناسب حاجة المستخدم العربي، المشروع مشترك فيه أكثر من شخص منهم مسلم عادل وناس من عرب آيز، المفروض أيضا أن التوزيعة الجديدة ستحل محل عربيان، لكن على حد علمي لم تتخذ خطوات فعلية في هذا الإتجاه حتى الآن.

Last thing I heard was that many of them were in hajj. I think hajj is over... yet nothing happened.
