| Linux vendors to rally behind desktop standard |
|---|
More than a dozen technology companies, including IBM, Red Hat Inc. and Novell Inc., plan to support a new integrated server and desktop Linux standard being unveiled at next week's Linux Desktop Summit by the Free Standards Group (FSG).
The FSG is a nonprofit organization that has worked for years on a number of open standards, including a server specification called the Linux Standard Base (LSB). In October, the group announced plans to work on a desktop standard, called the Linux Standard Base Desktop Project.
