"Mark Shuttleworth, Ubuntu Linux's founder, maintains
that he and Ubuntu are doing right by the Linux community and the
even larger open-source community.
"In recent weeks, Ubuntu has been criticized for not giving
Linux enough support. Specifically, the complains have been that
Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu, doesn't do enough for
producing Linux source code. At first, Mark Shuttleworth, Ubuntu
and Canonical's founder, was content to take the high-ground of
broad issues, but now Shuttleworth has gotten more into the details
of what he believes both he personally and Ubuntu has brought to
Linux.
"In Shuttleworth's latest blog post, he wrote about how Ubuntu
and Canonical has brought "the extraordinary generosity of the free
software community to the world at large, as a gift, free of
charge, unencumbered and uncrippled, and to do so sustainably."
