Talk:Bus factor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Linux
The provided reference doesn't support the claim made for it. It actually says that obviously the bus factor for Linux isn't one, and then goes on to suggest a pointless experiment.
Other Linux trees have been maintained without Linus, the maintenance trees (for 2.4 and 2.2) are maintained without Linus, as are the short-lived stable trees like 2.6.18.x and various trees like AC have thrived without Linus. As have those architecture trees which for whatever reason didn't get frequent merges. If a better reference can't be found, this claim, and arguably the whole article, should go. 82.69.171.90 (talk) 13:25, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
