"No, really. Everywhere I look, not only are Linux and open
source equated, but the masses of punditry seem to be embracing it
all with great fervor. This is a good thing; it's just weird from
my perspective because there's so much more to open source software
than Linux."
"(I'm also quite curious to see how the fervor-filled Linux
community -- such as it is -- will behave as Linux continues
evolving into being less and less the underdog. Will the zealots
embrace and support the next worthy underdog, or gloat about how
l337 they have become?)"
"The BSDs (of which OpenBSD fits my needs best), for
example, run a distant second in the open source OS mind share
category. However, the one open source operating system that hasn't
gotten any coverage over the past week, despite having hit a major
milestone, is Darwin."
