Craig Manning is a Manager in IT in the Client Productivity Solutions group and is currently the Steering Chair for the Desktop Linux OSDL group. At Cisco, Craig is responsible for driving the current IT infrastructure forward to support an OS independent environment and working with Desktop Solutions, Collaboration Solutions, Messaging, Mobility, and Security to support this effort. Craig has been at Cisco for 10yrs supporting Engineering, first as a Unix Sysadmin and then until recently managing the team that supports the San Jose Engineering Compute environment.
The OSDL Desktop Linux Working Group (DTL) captures, discusses, publishes and
develops Linux capabilities definitions required by demanding,
enterprise-class desktop applications. The ultimate goal is to accelerate the
use of Linux on enterprise desktops. The DTL Capabilities document is the
work of current OSDL member companies and interested individuals. The purpose
of this document is to provide an external snapshot of the work in progress
to allow feedback from interested parties. When complete these capability
descriptions will be used to evaluate the actual state of the Linux desktop
with respect to the usage models defined by the working group. Gaps and
difficiencies will be documented and expressed as use cases which can be used
as reference for open source development projects to come up with solutions.
