I am glad that the Indian Government is going for open source environment for building e-governance systems (Source: The Hindu - Red Hat releases Linux 5). The Q&A session with Scott Crenshaw, Senior Director of Product Management and Marketing for Red Hat Enterprise Linux, on “RHEL 5: What’s coming” published in InfoWorld has some insights on the features of RHEL 5.
