As far as I can tell, the most egregious thing he's responsible for is |
| 8 |
for wanting a well-designed system that works! |

Face it, linux is a hodge-podge of things thrown together, and held |
| 11 |
together with baling wire and sealing wax. Lennart doesn't want a system |
| 12 |
where a small failure in one place cascades and brings down a load of |
| 13 |
stuff elsewhere. |

Granted he's not necessarily the most politic of people, and has ruffled |
| 16 |
a lot of feathers, but I'd much rather a system he's cleaned up, than a |
| 17 |
system where everything hangs together on a knife-edge. |
