Talk:Levanta
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A couple thoughts: as the company has moved to San Mateo, the "San Francisco-based" phrase is out of date. How should it be changed? Also, most of the references to the company in this article use the Levanta name, even though most of those phrases describe the company when it was known as Linuxcare. Nobody would know that in the year 2000, a company called Levanta was attempting an initial public offering because the company name was Linuxcare at that time. bneely 06:32, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
I find it very strange to read this article about "Levanta" when in fact basically none of this was done as the Levanta corporate entity. This is more of a historical document about Linuxcare. I would suggest that there ought to either be:
1. A separate page for Levanta that talks about the current company and a separate page for Linuxcare as a historical company; or 2. A rework of this page to say at the beginning that the company is now Levanta, but then going through the history as Linuxcare.
In either case, I think the text as it is now should say the Linuxcare name, as that was the entity name during that time. User:dyork (Fully disclosure - I was a Linuxcare employee from early 1999 through late 2000.)
