yeah man, makes one wonder where Kees could have possibly copied my code from if it was 'proprietary'. if you are unable to tell then Kees/LWN failed at properly attributing the origin of my code so complain to them instead of spewing ad hominem. of course, a smart cookie such as yourself could have also just looked at the test patch collection linked from, wait for it, the PaX homepage but then assuming that you failed to do that so that you can justify going on an irrelevant diatribe would be bad faith, wouldn't it? ;)

Why can't you (validly) point out that your code is easily available without attacking people? Your stance here is right, but the tone and delivery (on both sides of the argument to be fair) is why there is friction.
