kdbus

So did you see the fallout on the LKML?

http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1504.1/index.html#03936

SystemDisease developers try again to infect the kernel with their nasty kernel-dbus, and Linus and several other senior maintainers trash it for being a terrible, insecure layer of crap. SystemDisease developers just smiley-face (seriously) and try to act innocent, and claim that if people don't want it, they can just disable it in the kernel, that it won't become a hard dependency. Meanwhile, the same people over on their SystemDisease blogs state that as soon as it's in the kernel, it will become a hard dependency by SystemDisease and several other projects they control.

Senior maintainers discover this and call them out on their shenanigans. SystemDisease developers then claim Linux is full of mysognists and racists, trying to use identity politics to brow-beat Linus and friends into submission. Linus tells to fuck off and that he'll never accept any pull requests from them.

Debating with Kroah-Hartmann is like talking to a wall. The prime example of this is the “It's not mandatory, don't use it if you don't like it!”/“Of course it became mandatory, did you expect people to disregard extra features?” spiel he pulls around four times in that thread alone.

I hope he's taking money for this shit like >>7-san is saying, because the alternative is a retarded kernel developer with way too much power. LKML is way too polite to him.
