[News] Linux Foundation Gets a New 'Base' at Linux.com

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Linux Foundation has bought Linux.com

,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux Foundation has long wanted the Linux.com domain name for obvious 
| reasons. For a long time SourceForge, formerly VA Linux Systems, kept the 
| site, but the company has now sold Linux.com to the Foundation.  
| 
| Sources close to the deal say that the deal was made because, -- an all too 
| familiar story these days -- the company needed the money. SourceForge, had, 
| in addition to its well-known open-source eponymous code Web site, been in 
| the media business. In December 2008, however, the company laid off the bulk 
| of its NewsForge editorial staff. NewsForge was hosted at Linux.com. The 
| Linux.com site then became something of a placeholder site, which held only a 
| discussion forum.
