Does this raise the chances for a "Google Drive for Linux" release within the next weeks?

  Chrome OS is a very different beast from desktop GNU/Linux distributions so I don't think that's a fair assumption.

    It's really not, once you get beneath the user-facing skin (most of which is, obviously, implemented as just a bunch of Chrome extensions). It's a Linux distro running X.org. It's much (much!) closer to Ubuntu or Fedora than it is to Android.

      And even closer to Gentoo! At least, it uses portage.

      I believe it was built in Ubuntu. I know they worked with Canonical on it before they announced it.

  There is an unofficial linux client out now - Grive: http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/grive-open-source-google-drive-client.html http://www.webupd8.org/2012/05/grive-open-source-google-driv...

  There is already a Chrome client.
