A lack of commitment to testing by the Linux community may ultimately threaten the stability of the operating system, Linux kernel co-maintainer Andrew Morton has warned.
Andrew Tridgell has made his first public comments on the dispute between himself and Linux originator Linus Torvalds over source code management for the Linux kernel.
Australian Andrew Tridgell has been appointed a Fellow at Open Source Development Labs (OSDL), a move which will allow him to continue leading global development on the open-source Samba project.
If Linus Torvalds stepped away from his position as coordinator of the Linux kernel, it is unlikely many people would notice, according to the man himself.
Open Source Development Labs, an industry-funded consortium, has cut a third of its staff, lost its chief executive and scaled back some technical work.
This year's linux.conf.au conference, held at Melbourne University, was an all out Linux free-for-all. Highlights include images of the new XO Linux laptop and an interview with Linus Torvalds.
Linux leader Linus Torvalds is moving development of the upcoming 2.6 kernel to a new phase.
One Linux Australia past president thinks so. In other Linux.conf.au coverage, a leading IT lawyer claims that an expensive and ineffective patent regime is hampering the work of Australia's software community.
Alan Cox, one of the most respected figures in the open-source community, talks about GPL 3, software patents, the kernel development process and Linux on the desktop.
Although Linus Torvalds didn't meet a goal to release the upcoming version of the operating system in June, the Linux leader says a test version could come as soon as next week.
Recent disputes over the authorship of Linux are missing an extremely obvious point. Has nobody noticed?
Linus Torvalds has published the last release of the current Linux development kernel, clearing the way for work on the next version of the operating system core.
Hoping to focus the attention of Linux developers, Linux leader Linus Torvalds releases a preliminary version of the next kernel of the open-source operating system.
