This is a much more recent incident. The time he abruptly resigned as maintainer of the tty code was clearly a "fuck this, if you don't like the way I'm doing it, fix it yourself" resignation in direct response to some classic (if mild) Linus-in-your-face criticism.
- Alupis 12y agoAren't they the same incident? His G+ posts talks about resigning from tty duties among other things -- but also states there was no beef between him or any other kernel maintainers.
- hamburglar 12y agoJanuary 2013: "I'm leaving the Linux world and Intel for a bit for family reasons." July 2009: "I've had enough. If you think that problem is easy to fix you fix it. Have fun. I've zapped the tty merge queue so anyone with patches for the tty layer can send them to the new maintainer." No, they're not the same incident.
