Linus Torvalds Will Answer Your Questions

Posted by samzenpus on from the ask-away dept.

Linus Torvalds was (and still is) the primary force behind the development of the Linux kernel, and since you are reading Slashdot, you already knew that. Mr. Torvalds has agreed to answer any questions you may have about the direction of software, his thoughts on politics, winning the Millenial Technology Prize, or anything else. Ask as many questions as you'd like, but please keep them to one per post. We'll send the best to Linus, and post his answers when we get them back. Remember to keep an eye out for the rest of our upcoming special interviews this month.

    I'm also interested in the reverse. Has the capability of kernel threads started you thinking about a girlfriend on the side?
