OSDL's Carrier-Grade Linux (O'ReillyNet)

O'Reilly's Linux DevCenter examines OSDL's Carrier Grade Linux specifications. "The CGL working group includes network equipment providers, system integrators, platform providers, and Linux distributors. All members contribute to the requirement definition and current requirement projects or work on new open source projects to meet the requirements. Many of these members have contributed technology previously missing from the Linux Kernel to make it a more viable option for telecom platforms. Two distributors already provide distributions based on CGL requirement definitions. Several telecom-related companies are deploying CGL or at least evaluating or experimenting with it."
