So what you are saying is that security fixes should be highlighted separately from regular bug fixes? That in a release, these security fixes should be highlighted and made clear specifically what security fixes went into place? Because that is what is being discussed here.

This is at the end of the day just so silly. Besides the fact that this is an argument from something like 3 years ago, it's also the case that Linus and the kernel development team just don't have to have anything to do with this process. If you want to pursue secret handshake security for Linux code, set up a project to do that. Projects doing exactly that date back to the mid '90s. Is this really anything more than yet another opportunity for message board geeks to go "RARRR!"?

  "This is at the end of the day just so silly." What is silly? Really, I have no clue as to what you are trying to say.
