issues ranging from product release slips to standards fights, as
Linux moves full-force into the commercial software
market.“
“Linux creator Linus Torvalds told thousands of Linux faithful
at the LinuxWorld exposition here that the next release of the
operating system has slipped, pushing it back several months. The

“In addition, Torvalds and others spoke out against the DVD
industry’s decision to legally fight developers seeking to port the
digital video technology to Linux.”
