- Keep, I admit today this might seem a somewhat obscure part in the history of portable applications, but I remember this gained some notoriety in the Linux world a few years ago, and we do have some coverage: Computerworld.com [1], computerworld.com.au [2] [3] techworld.com [4] downloadsquad.com [5] Softpedia [6] electronista [7] linux-mag.com [8] lwn.net [9] and a few other Linux-related websites [10] [11] [12]. We also have this press release at reuters.com [13]. LINA also seems to have been featured at O'Reilly's OSCON [14] [15] This was a somewhat ground-breaking technology, but never really reached a high-level of popularity due to lack of "maturity"/development. --SF007 (talk) 15:52, 23 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
