 This week in Linux history
 
    Three years ago ([14]October 22, 1998 LWN): Jonathan Postel, one of
    the founding fathers of the Internet, died from complications from
    heart surgery.
    
    [15]LinuxWorld went online and LWN contemplated retirement.
    
      So LWN is at a turning point. We could retire, let the trade press
      take over, and regain a lot of time in our lives. But we don't want
      to do that. We feel we have something to offer the Linux world. We
      want to be here next year.
      
    Ironically, LWN is once again questioning its continued existance.
    (See [16]last week's front page for details.)
    
    Microsoft went on the offensive with [17]an open letter in France:
    
      Linus Torvald [sic] left the university last year to join a
      Californian company. The development of Linux since slowed down
      considerably. In the same way, the maintenance of each
      functionality of Linux depends on the mobilization of the teams.
      Thus, certain functionalities have not known updating for two
      years.
      
    In other words, delays in the delivery of new stable kernels are not
    particularly new... (LWN ran [18]a full English translation of the
    letter).
    
    Gael Duval [19]announced plans to form a corporation around
    Linux-Mandrake. Three years later, MandrakeSoft is doing well.
    
    Two years ago ([20]October 21, 1999 LWN): The first signs came out of
    the U.S. administration that crypto export laws would be relaxed
    somewhat. It took another year to see distributions shipping (in the
    U.S.) with crucial software like ssh.
    
    LWN covered the [21]third Atlanta Linux Showcase. We even had our own
    [22]Booth Babe.
    
    LinuxToday was acquired by Internet.com and co-founder Dave Whitinger
    left, to turn up later at Atipa.
    
    One year ago ([23]October 19, 2000 LWN): Red Hat got some grief for
    releasing development versions of the compiler and C library with Red
    Hat 7.
    
      In other words, glibc's maintainers haven't expressed confidence
      that anything newer than 2.1.3 will be stable, and you can't even
      find anything newer than 2.1.91 on the official glibc website. Yet
      something newer than both is exactly what's in today's shipping
      release of Red Hat. -- [24]Evan Leibovitch, ZDNet
      
    Sun released [25]OpenOffice, the open source version of StarOffice.
    People were not too excited.
    
      Is it just me or does this seem a like putting 450 rugged
      individualists on a ship and launching them to sea, while we stand
      on the dock waving our Linux flags -- never expecting to see them
      again? More casualties of war and adventure. I hope they at least
      have fun. -- [26]ZDNet
      
    The current development kernel release was 2.4.0-test9, with a test10
    prepatch in its fourth revision. People were wondering how to get a
    faster kernel update cycle. Many ideas were discussed, none were
    chosen. Kernel releases happen when they are ready, and not before.
    
    Lineo put out a new S-1 filing in an attempt to revive its IPO. They
    eventually gave up though.
