stylemessiah Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 A couple of years ago, Linus Torvalds was discussing Linux version numbers and said, "I think I will call 3.11 Linux for Workgroups."It turns out he wasn't joking. With a release candidate of Linux 3.11 now available, Torvalds has actually named the new version of the kernel "Linux for Workgroups." He even gave it a Windows-themed boot icon featuring Linux's mascot penguin, Tux, holding a flag emblazoned with an old Windows logo. The name "Linux for Workgroups" follows such whimsical past Linux version names as "Pink Farting Weasel," "Killer Bat of Doom," "Erotic Pickled Herring," and "Jeff Thinks I Should Change This, But To What?"Read the full article over at Ars:http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/07/20-years-after-windows-3-11-linus-unveils-linux-for-workgroups/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
