Is the FSF shooting the open-source community in the foot?
http://www.daniweb.com –
Like many I'm sure, I'd heard a little of the Free Software Foundation. I recently stumbled upon a new campaign being run by the FSF, entitled the "Windows 7 Sins"... you guessed it - timed around the release of the launch of Win7.

Sometimes It Seems Like Unix(*) Needs to Learn from Windows
http://msmvps.com –
I’ve pretty much assumed that technologically speaking, if Windows has it, Unix and the like must also have the same functionality. As I re-engage with Unix and Linux developers and IT professionals in recent months, though, I can see that there are some areas – particularly in security - where Windows is far ahead of the *x operating systems.

My ideal operating system
http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com –

http://lxer.com –
I just got back from OhioLinuxFest "Forty Years of Unix," and I want to report on what I heard, who I saw, and what I learned. I wasn't sure how it would be this year, with a slowed economy.

http://blogs.the451group.com –
Matt Asay set the cat amongst the pigeons late last week with his post declaring that “Free software has lost. Open source has won." To my mind, there is actually a lot to agree with in Matt’s post but where it falls down is in its generalisation of the Free Software movement.
