An anonymous reader writes: "An interview with the ever interesting Robert Love is at KernelTrap. Robert is author of the kernel preemption patch which has been merged into the 2.5 development kernel. In this interview, Robert discusses the status of Linux kernel preemption, talks about his recent involvement with the O(1) scheduler and explains his recent VM overcommit work. He also reflects upon Linus' use of Bitkeeper, the future of Linux, and the recent Kernel Summit in Ottawa. A Good Read."

Ransom Love, Robert Love...it's no wonder no one trusts these guys with their money. Dick Stallman and Ed Raymond sound like good, dependable names, so that's something. But Linus? Andrea? We need some manlier-sounding kernel hackers.
