Zemlin's career spans three of the largest technology trends to rise over the last decade: mobile computing, cloud computing and open source software. As executive director of The Linux Foundation, he uses this experience to accelerate the adoption of Linux and support the future of computing. Zemlin works with the world's largest technology companies to help define the future of computing on the server, in the cloud and on a variety of new mobile computing devices.
Zemlin has been recognized as a top Linux and open source blogger and is widely quoted in the press on Linux and the changing economics of the technology industry. Zemlin also advises a variety of startups, and sits on the boards of the Global Economic Symposium, Open Source For America and Chinese Open Source Promotion Union.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

@agentgreenland
@agentgreenland 7 лет назад
looseSpark There no such thing as just Linux. Linux is a kernel that was created to fill in a gap in the GNU OS, which didn't have a kernel. Therefore, it's real name is not Linux, but GNU/Linux. If there were no GNU, there would be no Linux. Linus said himself, that if GNU had a kernel, he would never have made Linux. Linus wanted to have a free UNIX like OS, and saw the best candidate in GNU, which lacked a functional kernel. Linux' father is Linus Torvalds. GNU's (and The Free Software Foundation and the GNU Public License) father is Richard Stallman
@looseSpark
@looseSpark 7 лет назад
I know the history of GNU and Linux but what you say about there being no such thing as just Linux is not accurate. I realise Linux does nothing by itself but there is no obligation to use GNU and Linux together - you can use Linux and build your own OS (Google's Android being the most prominent example). Since Linux exists as an entity in its own right apart from GNU, it has its own, separate identity apart from GNU. So if one is talking about the kernel and not the whole GNU/Linux OS, then one correctly calls it Linux.

+Ilannguaq Kivioq Linux was started because Torvalds wanted Unix at home but couldn't afford to buy one, and because he wanted to test and study the new computer he had bought. :) It wasn't planned that carefully in the begin as far as I know. Of course nowadays Linux is a massive project and massive amount of people have contributed to it since. Linux is the name of the kernel. Of course in a fully working operating system, you then have other components too.

Yeah Apple uses free open source software (with a BSD license) to build a closed system with a closed shop where they do NOT allow FOSS apps that are licensed under the GPL (like the VLC media player).

@cdduker

+Paez Rice Yeah I think it's ridiculous that he uses Apple as example of a company that embraces the Free Software movement. Any company that uses software that has been shared freely and makes software that you can't change or use freely with it, is by definition not a free software. Its also meaningless to use stock prices of four companies as an indicator of the value of free software.
@decketnant9733

I want it to have so much freedom that it allows a company to refrain from posting changes they have made.

No, Stallman founded GNU and wrote a lot of software for that project (the 'GNU's Not Unix' project). Many other people made a lot of contributions to GNU. Then Linux made a kernel, a file system, etc. etc. and brought it all together into a working system. Note that it was possible to have a 'GNU system' before this, but it either had to be severely limited (eg. Minux) or not free (GNU programs on a non free Unix, eg. SunOS).

Linux machines use a lot of software from a lot of contributors. Richard Stallman doesn't have a monopoly on that, although obviously the GNU tools were and are quite important to the adoption of Linux. But then so was the X Window system, which probably doesn't even have a "free software compatible" licence as far as RS is concerned.

Most users don't actually interact with the Unix parts of it apart from using it for 'OS functions' like provision of a file system, resource arbitration, thread and process scheduling, all of which happen automatically as far as they are concerned. In that respect it could be replaced with anything, and most users wouldn't notice. However Unix does these things well which is probably why Mac users say their systems are so stable.

Mate I haven't been trying to convince you to change your mind :) The reply was saying that the GNU in GNU/Linux is specifically referencing the O/S, not whether it should be called that. I'm pretty sure that most of the main distros build their binaries against glibc or eglibc, so most of the software stack interfaces with the GNU runtime libraries on some level, add to that all the basic operation utilities they use that are from GNU; it's not really accurate to say most don't build on GNU.

Well mine is coming from the organization which actually certifies systems as being UNIX, namely The Open Group. UNIX certification is based on compliance to the (SUS) standard, not on the lineage of the codebase.

To be fair, your book is probably just out of date, as OSX was only certified from OSX 10.5 "Leopard" on up

As a full time linux user I have to disagree with the apple statement-as Torvalds has said himself: "Talk is cheap, show me the code." They won't. And people forget other things-how many employees does apple have to achieve this? More than the VW group-over 100000. And things are even worse when we add the suppliers, their legal issues and the fact that they are utterly dependent on others-Sony owns +80% of the music and film industry, which could put itunes in the grave if apple is not careful.

There are some 'binary blobs' in the firmware uploading part. The firmware of some hardware is closed source. This ain't even the drivers, these are the firmware, the software that runs INSIDE the hardware. Old hardware had this preinstalled (burned into the chip), newer hardware uploads it into the chip upon installation. This creates more open hardware, since you could change the firmware. However, the firmware itself isn't open source.

I do rate Linus highly ... BUT ... I think it's funny that people forget about Unix / Solaris / Digital Unix / Sequent Unix / minux / HP Unix and all the other Unix Operating Systems before Linux came along ... some people really need to read up on the history

dandymcgee I haven't missed any point.. If you read the first line of my comment again you will see that I say "I do rate Linus ... " The next part says " BUT ... I think it's funny that people forget .......... " and so on.. I never said anything against the video or what he is trying to say in the video.

dandymcgee Minix, to my knowledge, is open source. Solaris itself I think has some license restrictions but there are open source variants (kind of like google chrome vs chromium) geekmoment I understand what you mean but the projects you mentioned have either failed for their own faults, were obsoleted by linux, were based on (or inspired by) linux, or are only really exposed in the server world, which the average person has no reason to know about. Linux is a viable desktop platform, and it's gaining a lot of attention in the PC industry the past few years.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

I don't understand they say when Linux is modified it has to be re-distributed, but I know many cases this is not the case. Apple based on free software, but modified then they charge you for it. Google's internal OS they use it's got custom apps, file systems, etc. Cisco IOS XE is Linux based, but it is only available if you have a support contract and their hardware. Pretty sure VMware's ESXI is linux based, but again customized and need to buy it in some cases. Also seen things Like Informacast server which is used for VOIP/PA systems seems sort of Linux based, but totally proprietary protocols, licences, etc you have to buy, etc. This is one of many areas with Linux where things just don't make much sense. Others are bizarre program names, switch options that are really odd.

"Apple based on free software" And you don't have to pay for your copy of MacOS. "Google's internal OS they use it's got custom apps, file systems, etc." And? Ever had to pay for any Google service? I bet when you open any applications you'll find the FOSS parts of their code free and available for you to tinker with. "Cisco IOS XE is Linux based, but it is only available if you have a support contract and their hardware." They sell support, just like RHEL, Canonical and Oracle. And they sell hardware, which isn't subject to any GPL licence thing. So technically and de jure all these companies are doing nothing wrong.

Linux can function without GNU, it can function with GNU and something else in same time, Linux kernel can execute any other Linux executable as long as dependies are meet, someo f higher level system mechanisms are controlled by Linux (did you know linux as build in firewall on kernel level?). Also if oyu look on kernel syscalls you will see that even without GNU you will end up with exact same system principales. Imo calling distro as OS and calling GNU a OS is missleading on what Linux can do

Wrong. OSX is actually a registered certified UNIX system. It may not stem from the same old UNIX codebase, but it's a UNIX nonetheless.

as far as i am aware richard stallman initiated and evolved the gnu part of gnu/linux and the other gnu elements of all this.. and is more interested in free than 'tech'. without gnu, linux would not exist as it does, when it did.. and yet gnu's story is almost unknown. non-conformity rarely win prizes from the ones that define prizes and who are trapped by competition. using the full name for this os: 'gnu/linux' - would be a step towards integrity here.

That is if you are solely the end-user. Proprietary software isn't modifiable, isn't your own, literally: you cannot view the source-code,... Also (what Jim was actually trying to explain): open-source is community driven and that can sometimes be a good thing.

But it is not GNU only, it is Linux with GNU apps. I'm with Linus on this, if there never was a kernel GNU would have been dead ages ago.

Jim Zemlin is talking about Android, about the software in your TV, and about the systems banks use. All of these run Linux (the kernel), only the last is, usually, GNU/Linux (the POSIX-ish OS). He talks about Linus Torvalds, who created Linux, not the GNU tools. He is the director of the Linux Foundation, not the FSF. TL;DR, he *is* actually talking about Linux, not GNU/Linux.
