The LSB rolls out everything with v1.2 this June 28th, 2002. The Free Standards Group (FSG) board of directors approved the Linux Standard Base (LSB) workgroup's gLSB, archLSB-IA32, and archLSB-PPC32 written ABI specifications. All of these specifications can be found at http://www.linuxbase.org/spec/ In addition, the LSB workgroup has delivered runtime tests, applications tests, sample runtime implementation, and example builds of common applications. http://www.linuxbase.org/download.html Several Linux distributions had successfully completed the LSB Certification Pilot during the 1st half of 2002. These Linux runtime systems will be the first to be LSB branded. On July 1st, 2002 the FSG will begin LSB Certification of runtime Linux systems and applications. More information regarding certification can be found at http://www.freestandards.org/certification/ The push is now on to build the arsenal of LSB conforming applications. At LinuxWorld, learn how to build, test, and certify your applications to become LSB certified.
