Today we feature a very interesting interview with Havoc Pennington. Havoc works for Red Hat, he is heading the desktop team, while he is well known also for his major contributions to GNOME, his GTK+ programming book, plus the freedesktop.org initiative which aims to standardize the X11 desktop environments. In the following interview we discuss about the changes inside Red Hat, Xouvert, freedesktop.org and Gnome's future, and how Linux, in general, is doing in the desktop market.

About the last remark in this interview:
It's very strange that linux developers are seeing UNIX dead. I don't think linux will ever have the scalability of Solaris or the stability of BSDs. I remember that several years ago, linux community was thinking the same about MS products. But probably this remark is just another hype. And God knows we get used with this coming from linux (especially RedHat) community. Too bad linux haven't clearly defined its share into the market (maybe except the 'I look cool if I don't use Windows' guys) and it's thinking about the death of other OSes to settle into the market.
