By that logic, we should also include the lkml FAQ in the kernel tree. Should
we?

I am worried that a creeping takeover of the Linux hitherto-successful
development process is in progress, that concensus on this topic has not been
achieved, and that there is a split coming. That would not be good.
As always, what I do is in the interest of Linux and freedom. That interest
is not served by driving a wedge firmly between two groups of Linux developers.
I hope you understand that I am a *moderate* with respect to this issue.
