Hi Ake?
As with all questions the VO is free to choose what it wants or
requires. If they were to request Minix for instance sites would probably
can(and SHOULD) say no. this is I hope clear in the introduction.
All sites have to choose an OS and
middleware that they run. They could reject request for Minix.
Thanks for the comments, any more is good.
