There are many things that Linux does well. There are many things that still need work. But they’re not always the obvious things, either.

As I’ve worked with Linux and gained that much more experience with it, I see certain things that can be done better. Because there is no one Linux (save for the kernel itself), but instead a plethora of distributions each with their own approach, I’ve tried to think about specific improvements that any given distribution can make on its own.

I’m not talking about things like hardware detection or device support -- two things I hear a lot of -- because those already have legions of folks behind them and are not specific to any distribution’s approach. Rather, I’m thinking about things which a distribution can improve on its own to the point where it can serve as a positive example for others to follow.

Here’s a starting list of five, in no particular order:
