So a bunch of people from a University did A Stupid Thing, the Linux Kernel team apply collective punishment to an entire University, and then it turns out that the Kernel team’s review and QA processes (the things the silly people at the University were purporting to test when they did The Stupid Thing) seem to have holes you could drive a bus through….
Even allowing for the unpaid volunteer status of many of those involved, and the bad faith actions of a few of them this doesn’t look good for anyone…
Biting the hand that feeds IT
