Nothing inherent to the software is preventing anything. You could be right about the technical justifications. But OP's question wasn't "which is better?" it was "why?"
- anyfoo 2y agoI am addressing the “why” that you both claim. The person I replied to said, I quote: > A distributed project encourages fiefdoms, a centralized one asks for a taskmaster with final say. What does the distinction between microkernel and monolithic kernel have to do with whether the project is “distributed”, or whether it is a “fiefdom”?
