Perspective of a Thinking Human Being.

 Red Hat is a company I admire, they have the courage to stand against MS no matter what, and are not intimidated by the FUD (Fear, uncertainty and doubt) from Steve Ballmer. And now they say: "Customers Can Deploy Linux with Confidence". Red Hat is well protected by the Open Source Assurance Program, and if there is ever a patent infringement, they promise to replace or modify the software, is as easy as that.

 

In this matter I believe we should be very grateful to Red Hat, who has always stood in front and against MS in this matters, and they have a solid business, they are not just an underdog Linux distribution anymore, they have evolved into a solid well known Linux vendor. I know people tend to criticize Linux distributions when they get mainstream, but think about it, if no Linux distribution ever becomes mainstream, when is Linux going to really progress? In my honest opinion, this is happening all now, 2007-2008 will be very interesting years for Linux in general.

 So the new thing, I am working on, for Arch Linux is, the Arch Linux Weekly Newsletters starting with this week issue. I plan on doing this weekly and to have it released every monday morning. I have to thank Jason Chu who helped me a lot to get the job done, thanks man. I will try and keep the newsletter innovative, the first one isn’t the best of me, because of time constrains, and being a n00b doing it.emoticon

 

Well, in other themes, I hope I’m about to get a job now, emoticon I went to an interview today. So I hope this can help me do open source hobbies and still get paid from the real employer. Well, everyone thanks for keeping on reading everyday, I appreciate.

 Is so interesting, now it seems all of a sudden Linux violates less patents everyday, so if Ballmer does not sue at this moment then it will be case lost. Here is the time line and the number patents Linux "infringes". So is gonna be over soon, if that number keeps shrinking, well, if really the number is real in the first place, which I doubt is.

 

Keep reading my blog for updates on this issues and much more. And of course my thoughts will be up as always almost, daily. Thanks people you are really making this blog what it is. Thanks a lot for reading.
