Looks like the EU is getting serious about open source, which could eventually spell good news for Linux and hopefully gaming distros

      “Getting serious” means sending Microsoft and Amazon a strongly worded letter while sending Linus Torvalds a fruit basket.

        They compromised and sent them both a strongly worded fruit basket.

        Does Torvalds accept fan mail (physically)? I would love to send him a handwritten “thank you” letter for all of the work he’s helped lay for all of us :)

            I had in mind whatever the Finnish equivalent of a US P.O. Box would be.

                In that case, I guess I’ll just check the Linux Foundation’s website?
