Linux users march on city hall (News.com)

News.com reports that a small but enthusiastic crowd of Linux lovers hit the streets of San Francisco on Thursday. "Led by Michael Tiemann, chief technology officer of Linux seller Red Hat, the group marched the mile-long stretch from the LinuxWorld conference to San Francisco City Hall. There, Tiemann unveiled the Digital Software Security Act, a proposal that would prohibit the state from buying software that doesn't open its code."
