The final FOSDEM interviews [LWN.net]

The final set of FOSDEM interviews has been posted; they are with Gunnar Schmi Dt (KDE accessibility), Ian Formanek (NetBeans), and Tim O'Reilly: "My fundamental premise is that the world we all grew up in -- the world of both Microsoft and the Free Software Foundation -- is fundamentally challenged by the internet. The internet (not linux) is the greatest triumph to date of the open source approach, yet it has changed the rules of software deployment so fundamentally that many of the techniques embraced by the open source community as first principles don't necessarily give the desired results. We need to reinvent open source in the age of the internet. My talk gives some suggestions for what we need to think about."
