 | | McNamara feels the network will serve as a platform for the exchange of open-source components, a way to "process" those raw materials into something that is useful and available to the entire community. |
 | | The first major component of the network will be its software delivery and updates feature, which will be available starting next week, company officials said. |
 | | In concert with its Network, the company will also announce Version 7.0 of Red Hat Linux, with several new features including an enhanced version of Xfree86, which offers significantly better 3D graphics support, USB support for printers, mice, keyboards and scanners, OpenSSL for more secure communication over the Web, and a more customizable desktop environment. |
