I see where you're going, but I don't agree we're at the same endpoint. One should generally be accepting of changes, but they should be worthwhile. Theo de R

I see where you're going, but I don't agree we're at the same endpoint. One should generally be accepting of changes, but they should be worthwhile. Theo de Raat doesn't suffer any fools. He calls bullshit as soon as he sees it (ok, Linis does too) and is fairly uncompromising when it comes to code quality and security regardless of whether it's kernel or userspace. Seems to me, Linus is primarily focused on kernel space being secure and as long as kernel changes dont break userspace, hes cool. I appreciate both views, but tend to like Theo's better.
