Hi guys,
I agree that software development shouldn't be evaluated by political reasons especially on open source,
but i think explanation of the decision making process of linus may be in order when he make such statements.
Is he biased torward that way or another? If an israeli originating patch or development will be rejected because of his geographical location?

I can just mention a better kernel (REAL unix kernel not semi-windows like
linux), the way decisions are made, security, in business term much more
profitable.
But that will start a little war (as opposed to the war that is coming ..)
btw, I still use linux, since none of the bsd support my hardware (3(4):1 for
