  I agree with the person you’re replying to in the sense that Linus’s decision is OK, but the delivery could be less “idiotic”. This could be a different message entirely. Even a cold “Yes we have some things happening. Can’t tell more for now” would’ve been fine.

  I’m Finnish. Did you think I’d be supporting Russian aggression?

  Where did that come from? Sir this is a kernel mailing list. Why the chest pumping? I’m Polish and I have a smirk all day on November 4 but it’s just so childish from Linus.
