The mail is always public... It's part of the Linux kernel newsgroup...

  he could always have sent that mail to Mauro privately and a toned-down version to the list.

    Doesn't that defeat the purpose of having a public list? I think a big reason it's on the public list is because it should be. Linux is Linus' baby, he has every right to yell at someone for doing pretty much anything. And in this case, it was deserved. If you're going to break the first commandment of Linux development (don't break userspace), and blame the userspace for breaking, you should be reprimanded.
