The best person to answer your question would be Jason Haas at LinuxPPC,
Inc. He'd be able to give you both an honest answer and a politically
correct one. :)
Just my 2 cents, but I don't think you will have any problems integrating
LinuxPPC in a Redhat environment (I did it at home.. in fact, it's the
reverse. I introduced a Redhat box into a LinuxPPC environment shortly
after I got my RHCE).
LinuxPPC is very close to RedHat 6.1. Sure, there are some minor
differences, but those are mostly related to dealing directly with the
architecture differences.
Java is a touchy subject.. so far, with the Blackdown port, things seem
rather stable and reliable. However I am not the person to even put my 2
cents in on this one.. :)
