Would you buy cpanel and whm if we made it for YellowDog Linux?

[Hex Star]

The whole reason I started this post is because I know most clients
who are looking for hosting will chose a host who uses cpanel over a
host who uses say, usermin which is what I'm currently using, the
development of cpanel and whm for ydl will thus greatly benefit those
of you who are running a hosting business off of ydl based servers or
are simply just running your own webserver with ydl
