As I posted to the linux-kernel mailing list, the 3.4 kernel tree will be the next long-term kernel that I will be maintaining for at least 2 years. Currently I'm maintaining the following stable kernel trees for the following amount of time: 3.0 - for at least one more year...

So, you think you really know what’s happening with Linux?  

Imagine arriving at a conference where you immediately recognize Linux kernel developers from their annual Linux Kernel Summit photo. You connect with colleagues from other companies but with whom you're working on collaborative, open source projects. A lot of faces in the sessions are familiar and a lot are new. Your session and hallway discussions move beyond talk and you start working on advancing your projects right there at the conference. You might even start a new one. And, at night you leave the laptop in the bag and you enjoy amazing venues and great laughs. This is LinuxCon/CloudOpen.

OpenStack got a hefty share of the open cloud headlines this week with both Red Hat and Rackspace announcing new cloud services built on the open source platform.
