Eric Raymond on the VA Linux Change of Course (Jun 28, 2001, 15:43)
A few hours after the news broke regarding VA Linux's decision
to leave the hardware business in favor of concentrating on its
SourceForge OnSite software and its OSDN web properties, we wrote
Eric Raymond with a few questions. Mr. Raymond, in addition to
being a "noted open source evangelist," also sits on the VA Linux
Board of Directors, so we were able to get his take not only on the
immediate picture from the ground but the broader picture of just
what VA Linux's decision means for Linux and open source software
in general. We also asked a question or two about yesterday's other
big story: Microsoft's decision to support FreeBSD in its .NET
initiative.
