From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

MODERATORS
do they also lock their sources behind a subscriber agreement that prohibits redistribution of source like ibm's redhat has done?
RHL: We're locking down our source because people are using it without contributing!
Also RHL: Thanks for your contribution, but we're not interested until we have someone ready to pay us for your labor.
