"Linspire announced plans to standardize software installation across Linux distributions by expanding its popular CNR digital download and software management service to support several of the most popular desktop Linux distributions in 2007. Previously available only for Linspire and Freespire desktop Linux users, the CNR Service will begin providing users of other desktop Linux distributions a free and easy way to access over 20000 desktop Linux products, packages and libraries."

If they want a standard distro, which isn't going to happen, the next best thing is to have those distros use your repository. The Linux Foundation should provide a standard repository, that way, it won't matter what distro is used, so long as it uses the repository for updating and installing new software. Kinda like Debian and it's forks.
