State of Linux
summary
Linux now underpins huge parts of infrastructure and industry, with the claim that products move from roughly 30% to 80% open-source code and organizations funding shared projects instead of reinventing stacks. Foundations provide a neutral home, IP tools like SPDX and a patent commons, and funded the Core Infrastructure Initiative that paid for OpenSSL audits; legal and shared infra scale up (a $10M legal fund exists). Training scales via edX and a MOOC with 250,000 learners, plus remotely proctored, performance-based Linux certification exams and free passes handed out at the event.
