Linus Torvalds
Linus Torvalds is best known for creation of a new open source operating
system Linux kernel. It is one of the most prominent examples of free and
open source software. Linux is far more than just a server operating system.
In fact, it's running in quite a few more places and powers devices such as
smart mobile phones, home routers / switches, server, DVR, tablet device
and much more. The Linux kernel has received contributions from thousands of
programmers and companies around the world. According to David A. Wheeler's
calculations it could cost approximately 3 billion USD (about 2.2 billion
EUR) to redevelop the Linux kernel. He also created the revision control
system Git. From the press release:
