LinuxCon's surprise keynote speaker Linus Torvalds muses about open-source software

Torvalds replied, "I don't think I'm all that powerful, but I'm glad to get all the credit for open source." For someone who's arguably been more influential on technology than Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, or Larry Ellison, Torvalds remains amusingly modest. That's probably one reason Torvalds, who doesn't suffer fools gladly, remains the unchallenged leader of Linux.

| Red Hat Hires a Blind Software Engineer to Improve Accessibility on Linux Desktop

In a blog post by Christian Fredrik Schaller (Director for Desktop/Graphics, Red Hat), he mentions that they are making serious efforts to improve accessibility.
Starting with Red Hat hiring Lukas Tyrychtr, who is a blind software engineer to lead the effort in improving Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and Fedora Workstation in terms of accessibility.
