Interview With Gaël Duval of Mandrake Linux

Posted by Hemos on from the the-french-side-of-things dept.

jukal writes "Open for Business's Timothy R. Butler talked with Mandrake co-founder Gaël Duval about the company's past, present, and future. Worth a read, clip: "GD: For one year, we had a so-called "World Class Management" team that left us in a very bad financial situation, and engaged the company in ventures (such as e-learning) that we should never have been involved with. But that's all part of our history now, so I'd prefer to not dwell too much on that. ""

    ...because? I thought we're supposed to say Windows sucks? I'm so confused! Seriously, though, any victory for Linux is a victory for BSD (and vice-versa). Time for the two camps to learn to play well together.

    Any sufficiently unpopular but cohesive argument is indistinguishable from trolling.

    Would it not violate an MS patent if they did?
