eWeek covers the launch of LSB 3.0 and certifications by Red Hat, Novell, Debian and Asianux. It also includes news that CA has joined the organization.
The support that the Linux Standard Base has garnered from ISVs signals that the “Linux Standard Base (LSB) has come of age and is now ready to be pushed in new directions to make it more usable and useful.”
Ingrid Marson reports that Veritas, MySQL, and Levanta are among several of the ISVs that are backing the Linux Standard Base, “which should prevent fragmentation and make life easier for developers.”
Ed Scannel reports in his InfoWorld SMB Blog that the Free Standards Group has picked up momentum with the endorsement of the LSB by top tier application vendors including Oracle, IBM’s Software group, Novell, and MYSQL.
