OK, this is sort of a continuation of the Linus overworked thread. It's also
probably been discussed before, so feel free to flame me if I'm being a
complete idiot. :-)
My point is this: Why is Linux kernel source distributed as one big lump?
Many of the drivers could be distributed seperatly as modules, such as file
system drivers, some Networking protocols, Net cards etc... and have different
people maintaining them. Ftape already does this, and it works. (Although
he is mumbling about integrating it with the kernel...)
Just an idea... ,'/
