10 important Linux developments everyone should know about
,----[ Quote ]
| The Linux technology, development model, and
| community have all been game-changing
| influences on the IT industry, and all we can
| really do is stand back and look at it all,
| happy to have been along for the ride for
| developerWorks' first 10 years. The Linux zone
| team has put together this greatly abbreviated
| collection of things that stand out in our
| minds as having rocked the world of Linux in a
| significant way.
|
| Much too much has happened with Linux in the
| last 10 years to do anything like a complete
| job of listing the important events and
| technological advances surrounding this
| operating system. But nevertheless, in
| celebration of our 10th birthday, the Linux
| zone team looks back and presents to you some
| major milestones, why they matter, and what we
| wrote about them. Please to enjoy.

| enthusiasts might be inclined to include: no
| Debian, no KDE or GNOME, no Android, Moblin or
| other embedded system, no exciting advancements
| in the Linux kernel â IBM's perspective on
| Linux is a little different.
