There is no such thing as an open source community. The people who founded the open source movement in 1998, and the people who support it now, are part of the free software community. (We in the free software movement built the community in the 80s with our determined effort.) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
