Linux Guru Alan Cox Takes A Year Off
An anonymous reader writes "Linux guru Alan Cox is taking a year off from RedHat and kernel development to get his MBA. For years, Alan Cox has maintained the extremely stable 2.2 Linux kernel, and more or less been Linux creator Linus Torvalds' right hand man. Now it sounds like the 2.2 kernel is up for grabs to someone who is 'good at refusing patches and being ignored'..."

Alan Cox is a dick anyway
Nooooooooo!
Cheers

Melissa,
Will you be my work wife? I agree to your per seat licensing requirements, and after having read your EULA I believe I can work within it's restrictions (although a more permissive license allowing the modifying of source would have been preferred). I also promise to keep you patched and upgraded on a regular basis, and not to migrate to another platform without 2 weeks prior notice.
If thou see a fair woman pay court to her, for thus thou wilt obtain love
Alan Cocks.
Haha!
(What I did there was this: I read the word 'Cox', and then decided to replace that with a word with the same sound, but with a meaning that is a little more... ya'know?. So I wrote 'Alan Cocks', great huh?)
Thanks all.
SCO wrote all the whitespace characters in the current kernel too ;->
All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.
fuck SCO and those pussy ass bitches
linux 4 life kid, ya hear son?
i'm a fucking whip out my glock and put em to shock, son
you realize that it ain't a crime_, son.. till you realize that you're a shook one
lata nigga
Isn't personal time off against the communist manifesto? Cyanobyte
in anticipation. Thank you Mr Cocks and god luck.
so if anyone wants me to mod them up please paste a link as a reply, thanks.
i know people who took it for 3 years.. now shut the fuck up while i pound you in the ass
Alan, in addition to getting his degree also has a medical problem.
That problem is a filthy gross foreskin which can be treated by circumcision. Alan, being British, was NOT circumcised and he now needs it.
His smelly forskinned GROSS penis turned girls off, and he is looking forward to getting his first blow job and losing his virginity after his circumcision.
Foreskins are TOTALLY gross, and ANYONE who has one is a nerd, dork and smelly LOSER. Hookers won't even suck uncircumcised penises. Europe's population is DROPPING like a stone necause European girls are DISGUSTED with foreskins.
That is why Alan "uncut" Cox is leaving for one year. To get circumcised and to get an MBA.
Obviously I need to post this annoymously because I once tried having sex with Alan but had to run out of the room when I saw his GROSS Disgusting, and filthy foreskin!

Mods, you should definatly mod this up because we need to know if our #2 guy in the Linux kernel is having foreskin problems.
Cancer of the penis, AIDS, Smegma, and phimosis are all dangerous conditions caused by foreskins. I'm glad to hear Alan is getting treated for his foreskin condition, but if he denies it, we must have an intervention and force him to get circumcised.
It is our only hope in getting such brilliance to reproduce because no woman will have sex with a guy with a gross disgusting foreskin.
Plus, circumcision is better for his health, and we need our Linux guys to live as long as possible.
When Alan Cox recieves his MBA, we will have to call him by his new title: Master Cocks^H^H^Hx. Sounds like Alan may be dropping linux dev for pr0n movies.
