Effective with the 2.7 development series, anyone using or installing Linux will be required to pay a royalty of $1 per CPU to Linus Torvalds and $.25 per CPU to each programmer responsible for any driver that person uses. Linus says the new fees will greatly improve the development process of the Linux kernel by providing financial incentive for people to contribute drivers to the kernel code base. http://trends.newsforge.com/trends/04/03/06/139232.shtml?tid=149 Nash _______________________________________________ General mailing list [email protected] http://brlug.net/mailman/listinfo/general_brlug.net
