Red Hat goes all out for developers (Linux-Watch)
Linux-Watch
reports
on the Red Hat Summit, and looks at the newly launched
108 site.
"If you were looking for new products at Red Hat Inc.'s second annual Red Hat Summit, you came to the wrong place. But, if you were interested in bigger and better development tools, you came to the right place.
Red Hat CEO Matthew Szulik introduced the company's new open-source developer community Web site, "108," in the show's morning meetings. This new site is intended to help open source developers share resources; build and fetch code; find and meet other developers, interact with them; and collaborate with them."

108? Posted Jun 2, 2006 17:03 UTC (Fri) by s_cargo (guest, #10473) [Link] I'm going to wait until it gets to 116, maybe 117.
108? Posted Jun 2, 2006 19:24 UTC (Fri) by nix (subscriber, #2304) [Link] Yeah, what an *odd* name.
Still, at least they didn't succumb to hacker puns and call it `128'; that's entirely too easy to pronounce as `one to hate'.
108? Posted Jun 3, 2006 0:16 UTC (Sat) by allesfresser (subscriber, #216) [Link] I don't know that this is related, but U.S. law has a section numbered 108 that deals with copyrighted material and the freedom of libraries, etc. to reproduce it (otherwise perhaps called "fair usage"). See this URL for more info.
