China-Japan and South Korea's open source software cooperation, China's proposed Linux national standards become Asian or China's regional standards have been attached to domestic and foreign industry concerns. Japan has media reports that "China Government wants to further improve the performance of China's domestic Linux in this dominant standard. And further formation of the standards of Sino-Japanese and South Korea will be absorbed from other countries from other countries. The purpose of the Chinese authorities. "
As the head of the national software and the integrated circuit public service platform and the team leader of the China Linux Standard Working Group, Dr. Zhang Hongfen accepted the interview with the Tianji.com, explained his own views on the relevant issues.
Dr. Zhang Hongfen first introduced the background of national software and integrated circuit public service platforms, as well as the role played in the development of Linux standards.
Tianji Net: What kind of institution is a national software and integrated circuit public service platform that plays a role in the development of Linux standards?
Zhang Hongfen: National Software and Integrated Circuit Public Service Platform (hereinafter referred to as "Platform") is the development of leadership industry leadership construction in the Ministry of Information Industry, which provides public services for my country's software and integrated circuit industry and enterprises.
There are three places:
The first is to build an environment that solves the common problem of enterprises. Taking software companies as an example, software companies are developed by development, testing into several links to the market, and the platform hopes to help companies in every link. For example, in software testing, most of the test sections of most companies are weak, lack of testing tools, test talents and test environments. For SME companies, they solve the test problem. In this case, the platform plays a role in testing, helping these companies solve their problems that they want to solve and powerful.
The second is to guide enterprises and organize the industrial chain. An industry only has a complete industrial chain to prosper development, and the platform leads the company's development in accordance with the guidance and planning of the Ministry of Information Industry, to establish a complete industrial chain.
The third is to provide technical services to enterprises to help companies grow. The platform not only has a variety of advanced technical equipment, such as HP, Microsoft provides hundreds of millions of hardware and software equipment for the platform, and the platform has a senior talent that can play these equipment. These equipment and talents of the platform can help companies solve the problems that have been helped for their development.
In the Linux standard, the platform is one of the important organizers and participants, and we have already held a working conference established many Linux standards to achieve some results.
Tianji Net: What do you think of "Regional Corporation" in the industry concerned about the industry?
Zhang Hongfen: Treat Linux standards, we are very cautious. From the development of industries and companies, Linux needs a standard. Linux has always existed many issues, no compatibility between versions, peripherals and ISV (independent software developers) cannot support Linux release versions, and these issues require a standard.
The industry has a standard problem for the development of Linux, has reached a consensus. The standard is that it is imperative, but what standards need to be discussed. There is no unified Linux standard in the world, and why China wants to do standard? Linux is an opportunity for China's information industry, and governments at all levels have strongly supported and promoting Linux.
China's Linux standard is not to close the door from a set of standards, which is also impossible, and Linux core technology has mastered in the international core community. China Linux standard is insisted on open, and the need for China's development of Linux, which is our principle.
In addition, the Linux standard is not a government, and the standard group is an open organization such as Linux enterprises, users, and research institutes. The main body of formulating standards is a company.
Tianji Net: How do you guarantee the openness of Linux standards?
Zhang Hongfen: member of the Linux Standard Group is more than just domestic corporate members, but also international companies. We will maintain communication and cooperation with international Linux communities and experts to ensure the openness of standards. The core technology of Linux actually grasps the international community. Our current practice is to add yourself such as multi-byte processing, input method, etc. We also strengthen research on Linux kernels, and gradually enhance their influence in international communities by making their own contribution to international communities.
Tianji Net: Is there a schedule for Linux standard?
Zhang Hongfen: There is no timetable for the introduction of Linux standard. Strictly speaking, the standard is not to say when it is necessary to formulate, and it is necessary to see that domestic technology and market maturity include enterprise growth. If the standard requires too high, no one is actually not used. Or require it to have a paper empty text. (CHINABYTE Song Baoqiang)
