Linus Retiring from Kernel Dev

    Well kiddie, you spend a good deal of your time developing a popular site to the point that some big company wants to come along and buy it out, and at the same time keep you onboard for development, and then when April 1st rolls around, you can do whatever the hell you want with it. UNTIL THEN KEEP YOUR YAPPER SHUT FOOL - thank you and have a nice day. :)
