EE Times: Intel backs Chinese Linux
"Seven local and overseas Linux developers announced plans to establish
technical support centers to be
overseen by the China Software Industry Association
and backed by Intel Corp. The centers will focus
on boosting
Chinese software applications based
on Linux through technical and product assistance
to local software vendors...."
"Supporting "development of Chinese Linux software is one of CSIA's
important tasks," said Tianxing Yang, the
group's president. He said the centers' mission
is to leverage Linux to drive electronic commerce
along with hastening
government and industry
online projects."
"Ministry of Information Industry officials said they have closely
monitored Linux's progress in China. Besides
sponsoring a series of Linux-related events
in China, the ministry also has been very
active in unifying international
standards for
Linux. Ministry officials said they want to drive
the Linux industry though both internationalization
and
localization efforts."
