As I said, it's a matter of taste.

I did say that my writing was speculative? And I never claimed Greg
K-H is/was working for Redhat. Anyway, for the record I have always
had a great respect and admiration for both Redhat and Greg K-H (which
I see as a very good and knowledgeable kernel hacker) but this latest
debacle has taken it down a few notches... On the other hand I would
prefer Ubuntus approach to someone (anyone) pushing bad designs any
day ("speaking" hypothetically and generally without pointing out
anyone or any company). But this is quite pointless (my whining)
since, as someone else mentioned, "code talks...". Perhaps some day I
can find the time to hack my own solution (which of course will be
perfection ;-) ).
