Cotton: Fedora and Future of Operating Systems</strong><strong></strong><strong></strong>
<p><strong>Description</strong>:<br>
Operating systems are not boring, but they’re no longer the end of
the Linux development pipeline. As interest shifts up the stack to
containers and other abstraction technologies, what are operating
system makers to do? This talk describes how the Fedora Project
views the future of the Linux distribution, why it’s still
relevant, and how<br>
we’re going to get there. The operating system may not get the
attention it used to, but it still plays an important role in
providing the foundation that modern applications are built on.</p>
<p><strong>About Ben</strong>:<br>
Ben is a meteorologist by training, but weather makes a great
hobby. Ben works as the Fedora Program Manager at Red Hat. He is a
member of the Open Source Initiative and a supporter of Software
Freedom Conservancy. Ben is an<br>
Opensource.com Correspondent Emeritus and an Open Organization
Ambassador. Find him on Twitter (@FunnelFiasco) or at<br>
