Ubuntu Strikes Out on Its Own Again

"I don't know what's wrong with Canonical," said blogger Robert Pogson. "They seem not to understand that GNU/Linux is a cooperative product of the world, and wasting resources to do things differently when existing software is working well is poisoning the well. FLOSS is the right way to do IT, whether as a developer, a distributor, OEM, retailer or user."

Linux: The Gold Standard of Code

"Is Linux code the 'benchmark of quality'? Well, it is very good, no doubt about that," said Google+ blogger Brett Legree. "The main take-away point from the study should be that open source software, including Linux, is on par with proprietary software from a quality perspective. So, Linux code could be considered a benchmark of quality -- it is as good as anything else out there."
