LinuxCon 2009: Linux Kernel Roundtable Video Now Online
If you missed LinuxCon, you can watch the roundtable video archive online now.
During the LinuxCon 2009 Linux Kernel Roundtable, Linus Torvalds talked about his work on the kernel saying, "I've been doing this pretty much half my life." Audience members later laughed when roundtable panelist Ted T'so said, "Next year will be the year of the Linux desktop because 'next year' is always the year of the Linux desktop."
Linux Pro Magazine and The Linux Foundation partnered to provide free Live streaming of the LinuxCon 2009 keynotes. The streaming video for The Linux Kernel: Straight From the Source roundtable – with J.E.J. Bottomley, Jonathan Corbet, Greg Kroah-Hartman, Linus Torvalds, Ted T'so, and Chris Wright – is now available online.
