'It's really hard to find maintainers...' Linus Torvalds ponders the future of Linux

kldp 오시분 모든분들께 기회가 있는 것 같습니다.

The Linux kernel, said Torvalds, is both boring and interesting. "I've said the kernel is boring but I mean that in the sense that a lot of new technology should be more interesting. To me and to a lot of other people there is nothing more interesting than interacting at a low level with the hardware and really controlling everything that's going on. Kernels are not boring, but most people should consider them boring."
..

There is an issue, though. "It turns out it's really hard to find people who are maintainers," said Torvalds, who a couple of years ago had to promise to no longer yell at kernel developers who displeased him, we note.
...

"We do not have enough maintainers. We do have a lot of people who write code, we have a fair number of maintainers, but... it's hard to find people who really look at other people's code and funnel that code upstream all the way, eventually, to my tree... It is one of the main issues we have."

요약: "내가 화 안낸다고 했잖아.. 리눅스 커널 개발에 관심 좀.."

그동안 만들어온 메인테이너 문화가 기술적 솔직함을 빙자한 무례함이 지나쳤고 친목질도 있어서 신규?로 들어가기 어려웠죠. @회사이름.com 메일 아니면 차별도 좀 있고요.

patch 처음 올린 사람들에게 리뷰 받기 정말 어렵다는 이야기 들었습니다.
