Fedora 12 Pushes Bleeding Edge of Linux Networking
,----[ Quote ]
| Moving forward, Frields sees users moving
| to Fedora, and to open source software in
| general, as an alternative to proprietary
| software that isn't keeping pace.
|
| "We're being assisted by the fact that
| proprietary software is not getting better
| at the pace that people expect," Frields
| said. "People expect an increasing rate of
| evolution and proprietary software is not
| capable of sustaining that rate. That is
| driving people to look for alternatives."
