People may be upset for various reasons and I don't fully trust their subjective report on that. However, that's not my main point.

The kernel development is alive and well. People occasionally come and go. Thus the fact that certain people left due to some reason is not meaningful enough. We all know that if it ainn't broken you should not fix it. I was hoping for someone to reply with an example of a subsystem mailing list that behaves differently, to allow comparing. However, no one gave that reply so we're left with baseless arguments.

I'm on the linux raid mailing list. I've yet to see Neil Brown foulmouthing anyone ... it's a very well-behaved list ...

Cheers,

Losing strong developers for bad reasons is pretty broken.
