  4. What is OSDL by stratjakt · · Score: 5, Funny

    I know what it's purpose is, who founded it, etc.

    I'm wondering if it's an actual physical place. A place where Linus and Andrew are actually at. Or do they work at home from their underwear, and OSDL just sends them checks?

    I just like imagining a giant room full of cubicles, with only two occupied, with little nametags saying "Linus" and "Andrew".

    And Lumbergh coming buy every 45 minutes to say "Hmmmmmm.... You know what? I'm going to need you to go ahead and come in on Sunday. Ok. Great. And we're putting cover sheets on all the kernel patches, ok? Great."

    Alexandre Julliard, of Wine fame, is rumored to be scheduled to join OSDL as a fellow in February. At that time OSDL, along with it's three fellows, Linus Torvalds, Andrew Tridgell, and Alexandre Julliard will announce a radically new direction for Linux, Samba, and Wine... to create Longhorn before Microsoft does.
