How Would You Refocus Linux Development?

buddyglass writes "The majority of Slashdot readers are no doubt appreciative of Linux in the general sense, but I suspect we all have some application or aspect of the platform that we wish were more stable, performant, feature-rich, etc. So my question is: if you were able to devote a 'significant' number of resources (read: high-quality developers) to a particular app or area of the kernel, and were able to set the focus for those resources (stability, performance, new features, etc.), what application or kernel area would you attempt to improve, and what would aspect you focus on improving?"

Face it its an excellent way to deal with all sorts of troublesome issues. If you don't believe me go on Youtube and ask a Ninja.

Penguins.

There is only one thing I would change. More penguins! Penguins everywhere, a penguin at the command line, penguins on the desktop, printer test pages would just be a picture of a penguin. Ascii art of penguins inserted in code comments. when thinks are erased, they are overwritten by a pic of a penguin first. Anyone makes a CD based distro that is less than 700 mb, the rest would be padded out by penguin pictures, DVD distros would be padded out with penguin movies. It would use your webcam to search the room looking for penguins and if there wasn't enough, it would threaten to delete all your data unless you stuck up penguin poster immediately. It would steal all your passwords and post pics of penguins on your blog, and email all your friends with penguins, it waould also order penguin soft toys and penguin accessories with your Ebay account. It would play penguin calls and songs about penguins all the time, especially at night, when it would wake you up at 4 am with penguin calls.

Eventually, it would contact online plastic surgeons to arrange a penguin conversion operation to turn you into a giant penguin.
