Re: the future of Linu(s/x)

Some Linux solution providers view the
constantly evolving process of the posting of
Linux libraries, patches, and updates to the
Internet as inefficient and cumbersome
...
"I don't believe open source works well for
commercial companies because they can't control
schedules,"

I think the companies are forgetting they can't control schedules for
software development. Open source has little to do with it.

They also seem to be forgetting they're free to fork the kernel
development. I'm sure Redhat would use IBM's or Compaq's linux kernel if
it was better than the official linus one.
