Who's writing 2.6.21 and related issuesWho's writing 2.6.21 and related issuesPosted Mar 9, 2007 7:45 UTC (Fri) by jzbiciak (✭ supporter ✭, #5246)Parent article: Who's writing 2.6.21 and related issues
Hmmm... For serious longitudinal studies of the kernel, it might make sense to assign more anonymous monikers to the tracked individuals and entities. Those monikers could be qualified by various details, but still left sufficiently vague that random people would find it hard to game the system.
Obviously, certain individuals will always stand out regardless of what you might do in this analysis. But, these same people stand out anyway. So, you prevent the otherwise-would-be-unknowns from getting unfair "play," as it were, and avoid seriously perturbing the development process.
