Accelerating Linux in the enterprise (vnunet)

[Posted July 27, 2004 by ris]

Vnunet interviews William Weinberg, newly appointed architecture specialist at the Open Source Development Labs (OSDL). "We're seeing big-name companies joining OSDL. What are their expectations?
What the OSDL is most about today is the three initiatives we have established. The one that's best established is the carrier grade initiative. [Then there's] the data centre initiative and the newest one is the desktop initiative. The goal of these initiatives is to limit the inhibitors to Linux adoption and to accelerate Linux adoption in the enterprise. Each initiative has a marketing working group and a technical working group."
