Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu> To: alex.buell@tahallah.demon.co.uk Subject: Re: Ken Thompson interview in IEEE Computer magazine (fwd) I did see Ken Thompson's article in IEEE Spectrum, and while I'm curious about why he thinks Linux is "unreliable", it's probably not worth argueing about. Let's try to spend our energy working on those parts of Linux which could stand to be improved (and they do exist!) as opposed to flame people who dare utter things that we don't like to hear. It's a waste of time, and it simply hurts the Linux community. Better to spend our energy making them even more wrong than they are today. :-) - Ted - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.rutgers.edu Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
