<mmiikkee12> dinounix, i'm seriously considering switching to some other os
<mmiikkee12> give me ideas
<dinounix> ok?
<dinounix> why?
<mmiikkee12> because the linux kernel devs are insane... i can tell 3.0 is coming
<dinounix> tell me more :P
<mmiikkee12> hold on
<mmiikkee12>  - 2.6.<odd>: still a stable kernel, but accept bigger changes leading up 
<mmiikkee12>    to it (timeframe: a month or two).
<mmiikkee12>  - 2.<odd>.x: aim for big changes that may destabilize the kernel for 
<mmiikkee12>    several releases (timeframe: a year or two)
<mmiikkee12>  - <odd>.x.x: Linus went crazy, broke absolutely _everything_, and rewrote
<mmiikkee12>    the kernel to be a microkernel using a special message-passing version 
<mmiikkee12>    of Visual Basic. (timeframe: "we expect that he will be released from 
<mmiikkee12>    the mental institution in a decade or two").
