Linus Retiring from Kernel Dev

looflirpa writes "Here is a post from Linus Torvalds. Seems like he has had enough linux for now, and is searching for a new leader for the linux kernel development. Certainly a shame, but everybody knew that this had to happen, sooner or later" This also is your chance to voice who should take the reins from the kernel's originator.

  2. We should have a vote. by HanzoSan · · Score: 1, Troll

    My vote goes to richard stallman.
    However if he chooses not to lead, Alan Cox is a very good leader as well.

    I propose we have a vote, or even a contest where coders must prove their abilities somehow, then we have a vote from the remaining 5.

    Look, I know its April Fools, but that's no excuse to fill /. with useless stories that have no useful information. Sorry if I sound like -- take your pick -- the grinch, scrooge, ahab, whatever. Enough is enough. None of these things are even that funny anyways.

    There's actually real news going on out there.
