SUN Microsystems We've been debating the merits of a possible IBM-Sun deal for a while now, and even Sun itself seemed to be in the dark as to if it would be a good idea to be bought by IBM. These debates are now all moot: in a surprise move (at least, I didn't see any speculation about it) Oracle has bought Sun Microsystems, at USD 9.50 a share, which equates to a total of 7.4 billion USD. The news got out through a press release.

Hmms if your saying that linux has buggy code it could be nice to add some evidence to that.

The article that you linked to mostly deals with the exprimental tree that are used to try out new stuff.

Big surprise that there are many bugs i new code in the experimental tree's. and it would not hurt to have the whole quote

"I used to think it was in decline, and I think that I might think that it still is. I see so many regressions which we never fix. Obviously we fix bugs as well as add them, but it is very hard to determine what the overall result of this is. "

"Secondly: it would help if people's patches were less buggy."

And the last comment was only dealing with the exprimental tree.

If it's only your opinon then you should say so but if you state it like a fact without backing it up well then it's only trolling.
