Linux distribution survey (closed)

[Steven_L_Intel1]

We invite Linux Fortran users to let us know here about which Linux distributions you use now and plan to use in the future. This will help us in our future planning.

Please add your response as a reply here - copy the text of the questions and add your answers. If you use both IA-32 and Itanium, please copy two sets of questions and answer one set for each architecture. Thanks

Steve
