Some juicy quotes: Which, btw, explains why I don't consider you a kernel maintainer, Rik, and I don't tend to apply any patches at all from you. -- Linus [Linus,] please pass your crack pipe arounds so the rest of us idiots can see your vision or lack of .. -- Andre' Hendrick [to Andre']: I've long since noticed that we cannot communicate...If you have patches, please talk to Jens, tell him what the issues are, and I know I can communicate with him. -- Linus And there was lots of complaining about the lack of "quality" of the posts on lkml.
