There's a community phenomenon but frankly I think people exaggerate it. I mean when you put aside GNOME, KDE, ... and concentrate on what Linux actually is - the kernel and surroundings then how many people are actually working on it? How many of them are paid directly or indirectly by RedHat, Suse and other companies? Now, it would be great if other companies would actively participate in Open Solaris, that's for sure. There're also other companies and universities which are doing something with Linux and at the end it pays off. I belive we should attract them. I do not belive many (if any) people are actually doing anything important in Linux kernel in their free time - those times are over. -- Best regards, Robert mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://milek.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
