Microsoft Developer Made the Most Changes To Linux 3.0 Code
sfcrazy sends this quote from the H:
"The 343 changes made by Microsoft developer K. Y. Srinivasan put him at the top of a list, created by LWN.net, of developers who made the most changes in the current development cycle for Linux 3.0. Along with a number of other 'change sets,' Microsoft provided a total of 361 changes, putting it in seventh place on the list of companies and groups that contributed code to the Linux kernel. By comparison, independent developers provided 1,085 change sets to Linux 3.0, while Red Hat provided 1,000 and Intel 839."
Irregardless ...
I hope that was a joke!

I wish people would get over this myth of Linux being a community effort of users putting their minds together. (Score:1, Interesting)

I wish people would get over the myth that mod points should be spent more on grammar nazi'ism than the topic at hand.

While I agree with you, were you being deliberately ironic in using the word "irregardless" in a subthread introduced by a grammar nazi? "Regardless" or "irrespective" are the words to use, or Thou Shalt Be Disciplined(tm).
Anyway, IRL, when people say "could care less," I often retort, with a wry smile on my face:
"Well, I've had so much of the caring sucked out of me, there's no possibility of me caring any less at all."
I think people get it then, but I'm not really sure.
It gets a laugh, anyway.
BTW, if you want to pet peeve over something try "talking out loud". You know, when someone means to say "thinking out loud".
