Kent Overstreet
Another proof that L.Torvalds is an excellent man for his position. He managed to throw out Overstreet before he went completely crazy.

Did he throw him out? Last I knew, he basically gave Kent a blanket “no,” forcing him to go his own way.
Not arguing, just asking.

Overstreet’s FS was in the mainstream kernel. Not anymore. So “throw out”.

Bcschefs was removed from the kernel, but it qas because Kent doesn’t play well with others, and not because of the technical side. BCachefs had a lot of potential, but it serves noone to end up in another Resier situation.
Kent had a habit of pushing for wider kernel changes to support the FS, without working with the community, which will always break things. He is also very ego driven, and self-obsessed, which is not always a bad thing.
Linus’ person-to-persin issues always started from a technical perspective, so it is different.
