IMHO, Linus has a grudge against Con, but I can't understand, why. Con has written nice code, I use it even now, I'm glad to have nice high-interactive system on desktop. But "a grudge" is not an argument for Linus, it's better not to make a decision by himself, but to let the community to decide, what is better - CFS or SD. Question is not only in CFS vs SD, but in -ck patchset. Linus must remember that he has lost nice code and nice maintainer, and it's not a right decision. Linux is a public OS, so let people decide themselves, but not Linus himself. - 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/
