Don't forget. David Wheeler estimated the value of the *current* kernel. Somewhere else you can find out how much work has been done on the kernels.

iirc about two thirds of the code of 2.6 is new since 2.4. So it's easy to do the maths and work out the "per year" value of the new code in linux if you have the figures and dates in front of you (I don't).

Cheers,
