Year in Review

LinuxPlanet has a nice year in review at:

http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reviews/3979/1/

The one part that really struck me was in the last section, as quoted
below. Of course, PostgreSQL had a good year, but overall things were
pretty rough.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

dep replies: The 2.4 kernel has had its bumps, and the economy in
general, and computing in particular, really got hammered this year, as
did many of our notions about life in a free society. Might we stipulate
that 2001 was in fact the single worst year in our lifetime? Good news
was incremental and conditional, while the bad news was unqualified.
We're maybe beginning to dig out of it, but remembering 2001 with
anything approaching happiness, unless you happen to be a devotee of the
Book of Revelation, is going to be tough.
