In what already looks like being a very busy week for Linux sensationalism, the CEO of Green Hills Software continues his unashamedly self-serving series of Linux security "white papers" - "It is not too late to prevent Linux from compromising national security," he writes, pretty much as usual. "So far, Linux has only been deployed in a few defense systems, but its use in the development of new defense systems is spreading rapidly. That is why we must act now." With such emotive writing, it is hardly surprising that O'Dowd's recommendation is that the US turns instead to his own company's OS.
