Linux Ready to Fight Microsoft
Permalink   


The Linux Foundation insists it is equipped to fight Microsoft if the software giant’s lawsuit against TomTom impacts the open source Linux kernel.

In his blog, Executive Director Jim Zemlin advised concerned parties to “calm down” in light of statements by Microsoft’s deputy general counsel that it is targeting TomTom’s GPS mapping software and not Linux.

Yet Zemlin was quick to reassure the community that the foundation and Open Invention* Network has the funds necessary to defend Linux if necessary. TomTom’s GPS mapping software incorporates the Linux kernel.

Linux vs. Microsoft
