,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux kernel team is growing, both in total number of developers, and
| overall productivity, says the Linux Foundation. In its annual "Who Writes
| Linux" study, the organization attributes the growth to emerging markets
| including netbooks, auto, and energy.

Interview: Clutter maintainer Emmanuele Bassi
,----[ Quote ]
| We already experimented with WebKit in the past, but moved to Gecko because
| of the better integration with most of the sites out there; Aaron is using
| Clutter inside "Cubano", a media player based on the Banshee framework and
| mostly targeted at platforms like netbooks.
|
| The GNOME Shell project, which is considered one of the major new features of
| the future GNOME 3.0 release, is using Clutter for the UI and as part of the
| window manager, just like the Moblin netbook user experience is. GNOME Shell
| alone would expose something between hundreds of thousands and millions of
| users to Clutter.

MS steps on a Snapdragon
,----[ Quote ]
| That brings us back to the Asus and what was billed as the best
| netbook/smartbook of the show. You have a company that kicked off the netbook
| craze two years ago with the Eee, an OS that is not only MS free, but Linux
| based as well, and a chipmaker that actually delivers product. The buzz was
| growing at Computex, and that would create a PR disaster for MS.
|
| So it went away. No really, it went *POOF* in the middle of the show. No
| explanation, no excuses, just that it was there one day, and gone the next.
| PR disaster averted for Redmond, phew.

- From Russia with Linux
,----[ Quote ]
| Be sure Microsoft will put up a fight, because it will:
|
| Â Â1. Make clear to the customer what he pays for and how much he pays for
| Â Â Â it;
| Â Â2. Make it virtually impossible to impose its terms to hardware
| Â Â Â Âmanufacturers;
| Â Â3. Give customers a real alternative, backed by a major company;
| Â Â4. Expose the vulnerability of its business model in the 21st century to
| Â Â Â the shareholders in a way that cannot be misunderstood;
| Â Â5. Create a dangerous precedent - if here, why not in the US?
