Ask a penguin to see which way Linux wind blows
The nonprofit Linux Foundation has unveiled the Linux Weather Forecast, a Web site aimed at giving people a better sense of the status of specific Linux kernel projects.
The Foundation created the forecast site by teaming up with Jonathan Corbet, a Linux kernel developer and writer, who's also executive editor of the LWN.net Linux and free software news site.
The forecast, which will be officially announced on Wednesday, is already live and tracks work in the Linux developer community likely to be included in the operating system's kernel and in major distributions of the open-source software, or both.
The creation of the Linux Weather Forecast is a way to improve on one of the operating system's key strengths -- its open-source development model, which allows many people to both contribute to and refine Linux, leading to rapid development.
