Linus Fields Dev Questions On the Future of Linux (OET)

So it's not about open source versus anything else. It's really about "Oops. Now they actually see us doing this stuff. And so we'd better be careful."

Simple and good SCO enlightment, stuff!... Is it possible that real robbers are doing it right now, from Open to close ?

"Server people usually do stuff that they've done for ten, fifteen years. So I don't think servers are very interesting from a technical standpoint. It's all been done before.
Desktop is what I use, and desktop is technically much more challenging anyway."

Only hope that the LSB people get to read this,..., then, perhaps they could be influenced, and "we" might get some of the freedesktop.org stuff in, and a truly "technically challeging" and all encompassing standards.

Linus seems to be very, very confused about quantum computing -- to start with, it has nothing to do with DNA.

I never thought I'd see the day

Really? I actually have something in common with Linus? ;O)
