Linux Standards Base (LSB) 4.0 hits Beta
,----[ Quote ]
| The overall goal of the LSB is all about portability - write once for LInux
| and have your app run on any distro. It's a worthy goal for sure though a
| difficult one. That said, the Linux Foundation is already claiming a degree
| of early success with the LSB 4.0 beta. They claim that there are already
| some 234 applications that are at or nearly ready for LSB 4.0
| certification..not too shabby.

Theodore Tso: How the LSB Helps You Behind the Scenes
,----[ Quote ]
| Theodore Tso: So I got involved with Linux starting in 1991; I believe or at
| least Linus tells me that I'm the first North American Linux kernel
| developer. I started in late August of '91 with the Linux kernel version 0.09
| and been involved with Linux for a very long time. In 1999, I started making
| Linux my full-time job when I started working for VA Linux Systems and in
| 2001 I started working for IBM and about nine months ago I started a two-year
| assignment with the Linux Foundation so I'm still employed by IBM but they're
| letting me spend two years helping out the Linux Foundation, largely with the
| Linux standards space, but I'm also doing other things with them in terms of
| you know helping with the Kernel Summit which is now being run out of the
| Linux Foundation and all sorts of other things, but those are probably the
| two biggies.
