1.  They seem to have several projects going on.  We have one project.

2.  They are certainly diverging themselves from the RH/WB typical
installation process.  I believe that by staying very close to the behavior of
RH, we position ourselves better going to forward to maintain the WB
project/product.

3.  Does the cAos project have much chance to co-exist with RHEL installs?  I
suspect, that RHEL will be used by many organization and you will find WBEL
running right next to RHEL (development servers, test servers, and probably
production servers if WBEL proves to be a worthy production box, etc.).

4.  Some of the fundamental differences between WBEL and cAos exist because of
the sizes of the project.  WBEL is pretty much a one person effort (at least
the public face of WBEL).

I'm a strong believer in WBEL and think John has started a project that is
going to explode with public interest.
