Another set of tools the BEL Project offers is to provide customized 'remastered' ISO's as LiveCD's of distributions recognized by BEL project members as reliable and usable distros. Most notable among these customized remasters is the 'flagship' remaster project "Server Basic" which is based on PCLinuxOS.

== History of BEL Project ==
 
 
 
BEL Project began  a little over two years ago (Fall 1997) as a combination of efforts by merlin and bigbearomaha to provide out of box productivity for SOHO (Small Office/Home Office) users and small business and school  users looking for servers with an high productivity "out of the box" experience.
 
 
 
The actual collaboration began as a sub-project of the MyPCLinuxOS community using PCLinuxOS as the original 'base' for these remasters.
 
 
 
Since then, the project has become independent and has 'adopted' five distributions which it feels exemplify the best of the binary distributions GNU/Linux has to offer.

About this template

This template is used to identify a free and open-source software stub. It uses {{asbox}}, which is a meta-template designed to ease the process of creating and maintaining stub templates.

Usage

Typing {{Free-software-stub}} produces the message shown at the beginning, and adds the article to the following category:

General information

This is a stub template. A brief explanation of these templates follows; for full details please consult Wikipedia:Stub.

What is a stub?

A stub is an article containing only a few sentences of text which is too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject.

How is a stub identified?

  • If possible, try to find the most appropriate stub template for the article. A full list can be found at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/List of stubs.
  • More than one stub template may be used, if necessary, though no more than four should be used on any article.
  • Place a stub template at the very end of the article, after the "External links" section, any navigation templates, and the category tags. As usual, templates are added by including their name inside double braces, e.g. {{stub}}.

Further information

Further information can be found at:

New stub templates and categories (collectively "stub types") should not be created without prior proposal at Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals. This allows for the proper coordination of all stub types across Wikipedia, and for the checking of any new stub type for possible problems prior to its creation.
