Alan Cox Quits As Linux TTY Maintainer — "I've Had Enough"

      

From the It Happens dept.:
After a stern criticism from Linus, the long-time kernel hacker Alan Cox has decided to walk away as the maintainer of the TTY subsystem of the Linux Kernel, stating '...I've had enough. If you think that problem is easy to fix you fix it. Have fun. I've zapped the tty merge queue so anyone with patches for the tty layer can send them to the new maintainer.'

As you just said you have had enough. There's nothing to do with that if you have enough to it.

When you've had enough that's it, and the best thing to do is just to walk away. No point struggling on.

He should have gone a long time ago, I never thought he was qualified for the job anyway. (No offence)
