He has a unique and colourful way of making his point!

Linus is absolutely right. Best news in years, actually. Someone in the Linux community finally has guts to say no to MS and its advocates.

Glad that all of you responded!
In another article Linus made it clear:
A-Men to that!!"Signed binary modules are not going to be in the Linux kernel"

I noticed this label under a picture of him:
That is exactly why I have the avatar that I do! This time, at least, it is not Ubuntu in the firing line.Linux Torvalds and Bruce Banner, aka the Hulk, "You wouldn't like me when I'm angry."
I wonder if Matthew Garett raised this with Linus Torvalds because he thought that he stood more chance with Linus then with Richard Stallman? Surely Grub enters the discussion at some point?

Good old Finns (I know he's a Finland-Swede). Why dress it up when you can tell it like it is? They were so proud to have won the Eurovision as "men" with Lordi rather than as softies like Sweden with Abba. No, really. I was living there when they won.
"Why use a hammer to crack a walnut? It gets the job done and I have a hammer." - Finnish proverb. Maybe.
will be SHIM merged to GRUB somehow to make it simpler to install?
