The problem here isn't the main guy said something stupid. The problem here, and this is what is making me more annoyed, is that i used to have a point of view, and thinking of Linus as a great guy, who made something important. He actually did, but now he is making it just plain wrong. You know, security bugs are security bugs. The other ones are the others. Simple like that. Linus is not just putting all of them in the same sack, but he is also offending who does not, like the openbsd dev team. This is an unacceptable attitude from someone who is in the front line of an entire operational system, and, who wanting it or not, has a big influence, at least in linux world. So, i will not change my OS because of what Linus said or not. I will change it because i think openbsd is better. Plain simple like that. If i do not change, there will be technical reasons for that, like my sound card not working on openbsd, or something like that (mention to note, it does not work properly on linux).
