Kernel Changes Draw Concern from Open-Source Community
 
Members of the open-source community are expressing concern over rapid feature changes in the Linux 2.6 kernel, which they say are too focused on the desktop and could make the kernel too large. Sam Greenblatt, a senior vice president at Computer Associates International Inc., in Islandia, N.Y., said that while the kernel is evolving for the desktop, server and embedded markets, more and more technology is being included, and the kernel is "getting fatter. We are not interested in the game drivers and music drivers that are being added to the kernel. We are interested in a more stable kernel."

Tell Sam to develop his own kernel,or use the Linux package that fits on a floppy(forgot the name).......Linux is finally getting ready for multimedia experiences for the masses....
