Slackware, the second GNU/Linux distribution to be released to the public, is turning 30, with its founder Patrick Volkerding saying he was likely to release a beta of version 15.1 soon.
The Germany-based SUSE Linux marked a milestone over the last few days: on Friday, 2 September, the company turned 25, a remarkable achievement in an industry where the remains of software companies litter the landscape around the world.
On September 2 this year, SUSE will mark 20 years in the Linux business. That's an eternity in an industry where 18 months is considered a lifetime.
