That's also my experience:
- I have been on all major automation trade shows in Germany for about 5 years
- I am the author of one of the two German books about Embedded Linux and of lots of articles about Linux for automation
- I have organized the largest developer conference in Germany about "Linux for industrial applications"
During all that activities I have talked to hundrets of people who are either already working with Linux or considering it's use. What Karim says here does exactly reflect the mood of the people.
