TSL Is Dead, Long Live TSL

Posted by timothy on Wednesday October 1, 2003 @12:35AM from the by-any-other-name dept.

Masta writes "Trustix AS, the company behind Trustix Secure Linux filed for bankruptcy on monday. Erlend Midttun and Christian Toldnes, two former employees of Trustix AS and the main developers behind Trustix Secure Linux, founded a new company, named Tawie Technologies AS. They continue the work on TSL, under the new name Tawie Server Linux. All former volunteers and contributors declared their support for the new distribution, so 'TSL is dead, long live TSL.'"

OSS Business model by Interruach · 2003-10-01 00:41 · Score: 4, Interesting

If lots of OSS companies start going bust then starting up again, will that shake investor confidence in the other companies (eg, redhat) even though their business model may be sound?
