solutions for Internet infrastructure, announced today that it is
now taking orders for developer tools and services for the embedded
Linux market. The Red Hat Embedded DevKit (EDK) begins shipping
immediately and answers the demand for open source software and

“The Red Hat EDK provides an integrated development environment
(IDE) to deliver software developers everything needed to quickly
and easily create embedded Linux applications on a wide spectrum of
pervasive computing platforms. The targeted markets include
