    How and why Linux has thrived after three decades
    [14:13] schestowitz[TR2]
    [14:13] schestowitz[TR2]

    Corbet's talk offered a rare, nearly unique, insight into the rise and rise of Linux over 30 years. There aren't that many developers who've been involved for so much of that time, and of those, few are good communicators who are both able to talk about and as well as actually wanting to do so. It's quite well known that Linus Torvalds himself doesn't enjoy public speaking.
