Drones have just found their new best friends: coders. On Oct. 13, the Linux Foundation unveiled a nonprofit organization called the Dronecode Project ( https://www.dronecode.org ), an open-source development initiative uniting thousands of coders for the purpose of building an aerial operating system for drones.
