Hi,

http://www.linux-watch.com/news/NS6229131777.html

So, while Linux does have a substantial contribution being made to it by amateurs, the vast bulk of it is being written by corporate programmers. The companies that are building Linux, in order of their contributions to the kernel, are:

      1) Red Hat, 11.2 percent
      2) Novell, 8.9 percent
      3) IBM, 8.3 percent
      4) Intel, 4.1 percent
      5) LF, 3.5 percent
      6) SGI, 2.0 percent
      7) MIPS Technology, 1.6 percent
      8) Oracle, 1.3 percent
      9) MontaVista, 1.2 percent
      10) Lintronix, 1.0 percent.


In addition, consultants' efforts have counted for 2.5 percent of the total work on Linux.
