I am not saying that the linux world should follow me. I am saying that the linux world should do the right thing. And I believe that I am saying the right things. If people don't think that I am saying the right things, it is ok with me. By the way, about my qualifications: * I am the author of the following HOWTO: https://tldp.org/HOWTO/html_single/Implement-Sys-Call-Linux-2.6-i386/. At one point in time, my HOWTO was a homework assignment in many universities across the world. * I have contributed a few patches in the linux kernel. * Recently, I developed a C library that can be used as a C++ STL list, map, set, stack, queue, deque, multimap, multiset, unordered_map, unordered_set, unordered_multimap, and unordered_multiset (basically almost all C++ STL data structures). People who develop applications in C can use this library to avoid implementing data structures again and speed up their development. It can be found here: https://github.com/amit0523/generic-doubly-linked-list-library * I have passed the toughest engineering entrance exam in the world (India's IIT-JEE exam) and studied Computer Science from IIT-BHU. * I did my MS in Computer Networking from NCSU, NC and I had got full (100%) scholarship. I had scored 2240/2400 in GRE exam and I had got 800/800 in both analytical sections and quantitative sections. * At NCSU, I was the topper in my batch and my grades were perfect 4.0/4.0. I had worked in USA for around 6 years in companies like Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks, etc. But I returned back to India because I found USA boring and I had got the Green Card also. And my skills are such that I can get a job any time in USA from India and I will also get H1-B visa easily because I have done MS from USA and so I fall in the quota of 20,000 H1-B visas that are reserved for those with a master's degree or higher from a U.S. institution. But again, if someone doesn't do the right thing, that person will lose. My job is only to suggest the right thing to do. If people don't think that I am saying the right things, it is ok with me. If people don't agree with me, it is fine with me, I am not losing anything.
