Disagreement over the Desktop Linux Summit

[Posted January 17, 2003 by corbet]

DesktopLinux.com has posted an article on its withdrawal from the Desktop Linux Summit, which, they believe, has become dominated by a single vendor. "Then, last week, Lindows.com suddenly and unilaterally directed DesktopLinux.com to substitute a new agenda for the old one -- one that had not been discussed or reviewed with the Advisory Board. The agenda was a completely new one, with major changes such as substitution of Lindows.com CEO Michael Robertson for Open Source advocate Bruce Perens in the conference welcome keynote slot."
