| Acceptance of the Linux open source operating system has been rising for 
| years. However, the last six to nine months have seen tremendous development
| of the Linux desktop, according to the Linux Foundation's Amanda McPherson.
| That progress is remarkable compared to the six years it took Microsoft to 
| get from Windows XP to Windows Vista, she added.

Where Is the Linux Kernel Going?  

,----[ Quote ]
| Much of the work on the soon-to-arrive 2.6.22 kernel is being devoted to 
| stabilizing these new features. Bottomley observed that the Linux kernel 
| developers must deal with the "tension between new features and stabilizing 
| those features." He urged users to remember that, "If you're running Fedora 
| Core 7, then you're helping us to stabilize and test the kernel."
