▤ Summary

Linux continues to give the mainframe the new blood it needs to stay alive in the 21st century.Dirk Hohndel, VMware VP and chief open source officer, asked Linus Torvalds, Linuxs creator, at The Linux Foundation s Open Source Summit North America in Vancouver, if he understood it at all.Looking ahead, Torvalds noted that old Linux kernel developers are sticking around, while new programmers are appearing.He thinks, though, some corporate open-source projects are putting the cart before the horse by focusing on growing their communities rather than improving their code.With hardware no longer speeding up as Moores Law finally comes to its end , software must improve to meet our demands for ever-more powerful programs.
