Work Groups

FSG responsibility for the following work groups has now transferred to The Linux Foundation:

  • The Linux Assigned Names and Numbers Authority (LANANA)
  • OpenPrinting, creating a scalable printing architecture and high-level requirements for a standardized printing system
  • Accessibility, developing accessibility standards for free and open source platforms

Famous quotes containing the words work and/or groups:

    “And now my work is done, which neither the anger of
    Jove, nor fire, nor sword, nor the gnawing tooth of time
    shall ever be able to undo.... Wherever Rome’s power
    extends over the conquered world, I shall have mention
    on men’s lips.”
    —Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    “And seniors grow tomorrow
    From the juniors today,
    And even swimming groups can fade,
    Games mistresses turn grey.”
    —Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
