Interview: Amanda McPherson on the $25 Billion Linux Ecosystem
,----[ Quote ]
| As you can see from this report or others we've done here, though, Linux is
| growing at least 10% a year. I expect this will continue, but perhaps not at
| the fast clip we saw in the last six years. For instance, the new mobile and
| mobile Internet device users bring a host of new requirements, as well as new
| architectures.

Linux 2.6.28-rc4
,----[ Quote ]
| Nothing hugely exciting here. Various small fixes all over. There's a
| delayed FAT update which includes some movement of files around, and
| there's two fixes for some really long-standing problems (not really
| regressions, but nasty bugs) in Unix domain file descriptor passing.
