some names or examples? Have any Indians
contributed to the
development of the Kernel?
Looking through CREDITS for the Linux kernel (these names are Indian, but note that they're not *in* India):
N: Krishna Balasubramanian E: balasub@cis.ohio-state.edu D: Wrote SYS V IPC (part of standard kernel since 0.99.10)
N: Arindam Banerji E: axb@cse.nd.edu D: Contributed ESDI driver routines needed to port LINUX to the PS/2 MCA. S: Department of Computer Science & Eng. S: University of Notre Dame S: Notre Dame, Indiana S: USA
Also, though not directly related to Linux, but free software all the same, you have Gurusamy Sarathy of the U. of Michigan, who did the Perl port to Windows.
Rgds,
Krishnan
