I think there are checklists (good, safe operation) and certifications (paperwork). Seen verifications for ISO-Something, were incredible efforts invested to get the certificate. Looking at the actual technical side…I’m worried. Certifications which were influenced by people which follow their personal targets are a way to block competition and innovation. Certifications influenced by people with right mindest could help (e.g. require source access, data access, compatibility) a lot. What I wonder as user: What does Red Hat and Canonical actually test when ThinkPads are certified?
