Today's announcment that Verizon and Mozilla are joining the Linux Mobile Foundation (LiMo) is great news for the advancement of mobile Linux.

Having a major carrier like Verizon announce that they "will encourage its handset partners to use the OS even if it is not a part of LiMo" and that they will "make a big financial commitment by hiring people" signals great confidence in open platforms as the way forward.

The goal of the Open Web conference is to showcase open web technologies, communities and culture, and to evangelize the Open Web to developers, designers, organizers and the community at large.
