In December, the nonprofit Open Source Development Labs cut a
third of its staff and announced that CEO Stuart Cohen was
leaving to pursue a new open-source software-related venture in
collaboration with OVP Venture Partners. The organization,
which is supported by members such as IBM and Intel, will
move forward with a 19-person staff and a focus on legal
support for the Linux operating system and regional
Linux-related activities. The group will continue to employ
Linux founder Linus Torvalds.
