Kernel Changes Draw Concern from Open-Source Community

Kernel Changes Draw Concern from Open-Source Community

Growing pains for Linux. Really not unexpected. There is a lot of competition happening with the different distributions. The article makes me think of the question, can a desktop operating system and server operating system be one in the same? Microsoft has tried over the years to get their original desktop OS to become a robust server operating platform. They have made some significant progress but in my view still no where near the capability of UNIX. Now Linux is trying to compete with Microsoft for a share of the desktop market. Will that take away from the server OS?
