The Linux Foundation has produced a whole pile of video interviews with kernel developers from this year's Kernel Summit.

Short 5-10 minute interviews with 15 different kernel developers are available. You can watch interviews with Linus Torvalds, Ted Ts'o, Greg Kroah-Hartman, and many others including LWN Executive Editor Jonathan Corbet.

Videos are available in both Ogg and Flash formats.

Linux Magazine: "In the second keynote of the Linux-Kongress in Hamburg, Germany, cofounder of LWN.net and kernel developer Jonathan Corbet presented details on yesterday's released Kernel 2.6.27, but also described some of the work Linux Torvalds and his group of hackers have been up to."

Linux Pro Magazine will be streaming live video of the Linux-Kongress keynotes.

You can see James Bottomley's "What is the value of Open Source", LWN Executive Editor Jonathan Corbet's "Kernel Report", or Dirk Hohndel's presentation on Mobile Linux.

Linux-Kongress is being held October 7-10 in Hamburg, Germany. See the web site for the schedule.

I have owned several editions of Nemeth's 'UNIX System Administration Handbook' (USAH) and I have always been highly impressed by the quality of writing and instruction. In that book, Nemeth et al brilliantly (and humorously) packed material into 853...

Jack Spine writes "The Linux Foundation has published a how-to document for developers who want to negotiate the hidden shoals of open source.

According to both the Linux Foundation and the Open Source Consortium, developers can get frustrated with the processes in open source coding, especially for enterprise-class projects like Linux.

'A guide to the kernel development process' aims to encourage participation from new programmers by explaining what's involved.

InformationWeek talks to LWN's Jonathan Corbet about his recently published Linux Foundation document: "How To Participate In The Linux Community".

"Development of the Linux kernel is a process that's a mystery to many outsiders. Someone who thinks he has just the right code to add to Linux periodically crashes into the hurdles that need to be leaped before the new code can get incorporated into the kernel.

The Linux Foundation is trying to do something about that.

The Linux Foundation (LF) has published a guide by Jonathan Corbet (pictured) on how to participate in the Linux kernel development community.

The 30-page guide explains the development process, but does not require a deep knowledge of kernel programming, says the non-profit group.

The Linux Foundation has sent out a press release announcing the availability of How to participate in the Linux community, an extended guide written by LWN editor Jonathan Corbet.
