Thanks Jeff, so from reading all the responses here I can conclude that Linux
innovates stuff by itself and not only gets it from other places. Is it also
right to say that other kernels, be it BSD, Solaris, maybe AIX?, also benefit
from the Linux innovations? eg adding stuff from the Linux kernel into their
own kernels if their licenses allow it
