Ten Leading Open Source Innovators (Earthweb)
Although still in stealth-mode, Qumranet has generated enough buzz in the open-source community that its future product offering is already coming into focus. The company will deliver virtualization solutions developed around a kernel-based approach that allows the software to be smaller and more efficient than competing solutions." The site could benefit from a severe Greasemonkey script, however.

but anyway. There is software which is open source in theory. Maybe with a license that sais "we can't sue you if you distribute the code". But the code is hard to find and the company discourages any development.
And it is not OK to put such projects in the same level as the Linux kernel which is a project dominated by hackers and intelligent people. Or gcc whos developers are commited to free software and their procedures are transparent.
This lie should stop at news sites. Especially ones like lwn, who can tell whether a proect is open source as in "controlled by hackers", or Pseudo-OSS-ware.
It is sad that these were the best they could come up with. I don't think it means, though, that nobody's doing anything very innovative in Free Software. I suspect it's just that the authors didn't know where to look.Is that it?
It seemed weighted toward network services and virtualization. I might have mentioned Vyatta (XORP) and Equivalence Pty (Asterisk). Who else?Is that it?
(That should be Digium, not Equivalence!)Is that it?
