I wonder
Say someone just did a find and replace, changing all references to "Reiser" to something else, and then submitted it as a brand new patch, if anyone would really know the difference.
Obviously murdering a spouse is wrong, but it also doesn't have any impact on the quality of the code. I have no horse in this race, it just seems like if the issue has to do with the fact that the guy who made it is an admitted murderer, they could just change the name and all references to the original author. If there's some other issue with the code or design of the filesystem then that's another story, but there doesn't seem to be any mention of that.
