A look back at the open source victories of 2008

,----[ Quote ]
| This year brought many exciting new developments for open source software, 
| but there are many more that we can look forward to in 2009. Intel's 
| intriguing new Linux-based Moblin platform is finally arriving on devices and 
| will make major inroads in 2009 as the platform gains broader acceptance. The 
| ACCESS Linux Platform and other emerging LiMo-compatible platforms could also 
| debut on devices in the coming year and bring the open source operating 
| system to more handsets.      
| 
| Netbook growth will likely continue to surge, creating many new challenges 
| and opportunities for Linux. Netbook-centric development initiatives, such as 
| Ubuntu's Netbook remix and ARM port will continue to advance. We also expect 
| to see community-driven distros gaining some enterprise traction as companies 
| look for more ways to cut support costs.
