Hi, at the moment i`m a trainee busy porting Linux to an ARM development board, while i was busy with this project i became curious on how linux has become so succesfull. An article (or some articles) can be found on www.opensource.org. The most interesting article i found was http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/writings/cathedral-bazaar/cathedral-bazaar/. It discribes a (proven) theory about software development.
