身在中國的Debian開發(fā)者 Thomas Goirand：

喜歡Linux的哪些方面？

I found fascinating that Windows keeps so much momentum considering the various exploits and issues you have running with it. Windows is really a toy OS and I don't get how it can still survive when Linux (eg: distributions, not really the kernel) is around. 

【大意：當時我覺得很奇怪，充滿各種漏洞和問題的Windows為啥會這么多人用。我覺得Windows就是個玩具OS，我是不太明白為什么有各種Linux發(fā)行版的存在，Windows仍然繼續(xù)存活著。】

Linux在未來3年有哪些機遇和挑戰(zhàn)？

I really think that IT will continue to be dominated by laptops! Mobile phones are already a reality. What we have yet to see is a fully open mobile platform, like some are currently trying to build in Debian. I don't consider Android an open platform at all: it only runs a fork of the kernel, and all the rest remain close. This HAS to change.

Linux, as a kernel, is already in many, many devices. As a distribution, see above for what I think about mobile phones. As for the datacenter, I think it already has the best spot.

Finally, I would like to add that Debian is the best and most usable distribution around. The more time passes, the more Ubuntu is being full of issues. Currently, Debian is a very very good desktop solution (and it's been years that it's the best server solution).

And, we (DD living in China) are inviting more Chinese to join the Debian effort. We already started the task of mentoring other's work, but that's not enough: we need more Chinese to get involved.  

【大意：我認為IT將仍然由筆記本電腦主導！移動手機已經(jīng)成為現(xiàn)實，但我們還沒有看到一個完全開放的移動平臺。Debian現(xiàn)在有一些人在進行這方面的嘗試。我一點也不覺的Android是個開放的平臺：它只不過運行了Linux內(nèi)核的一個分支，剩下的都是封閉的。這必須要改變。

Linux內(nèi)核已經(jīng)存在于很多很多的設(shè)備當中。Linux發(fā)行版在移動設(shè)備方面，上面我已經(jīng)提到過了。在數(shù)據(jù)中心方面，Linux已經(jīng)是獨領(lǐng)風騷了。

最后我想說，Debian是最好的、最穩(wěn)定的發(fā)行版。隨著時間流逝，Ubuntu將會產(chǎn)生更多的問題。而目前，Debian也是一個非常非常好的桌面發(fā)行版（它很多年來一直是最好的服務(wù)器發(fā)行版）。

我們這些在中國的DD希望邀請更多中國的朋友們加入Debian的開發(fā)當中。我們已經(jīng)開始一些指導其他參與者的工作，但首先我們需要更多來自中國的朋友們參與到這個社區(qū)當中?！?/p>
