Q&A: Red Hat exec talks of challenges to open-source - Computerworld: "The Linux Standard Base 2.0 of the Free Standards Group attempts to get some standardization into various distributions of Linux. When will Red Hat start shipping LSB 2.0-compliant products? We are really looking towards LSB 3.0, because the 2.0 compromise is not compatible with prior decisions we have made with respect to C . We have been very successful to certify against LSB Version 1.0, and we will continue to stay compatible with that. We think 2.0 overreached in what it was trying to do. We have it from the LSB people that there will be a 3.0 out in less than six months, and we are quite confident that that version will be adequate for our needs and everybody else's."
