,----[ Quote ]
| While LinMin is a relatively new company, the technology on which LinMan's
| product is based was inherited from the now-defunct systems management
| company called Open Country. According to LinMin CEO Laurent Gharda (who
| formerly worked at Open Country), two-thirds of the people who have
| downloaded LinMan's product work for hosting companies. "These companies
| deploy systems frequently, and they tend to have less standardization in
| terms of server operating systems," Gharda said.

| The 451 Group says open-source VC investments totaled $204 million in the

| previous record haul of $194 million, set in the fourth quarter of 2006.

| But companies getting first-round or initial funding garnered a mere $9
| million, less than 5% of the total and a record low, says the research firm.
