From an email from Linus Torvalds to GKH
"Greg just for your information, I will *not* be merging any code from Kay [Sievers] into the kernel until this constant pattern is fixed.
This has been going on for *years*, and doesn't seem to be getting any better. This is relevant to you because I have seen you talk about the kdbus patches, and this is a heads-up that you need to keep them separate from other work. Let distributions merge it as they need to and maybe we can merge it once it has been proven to be stable by whatever distro that was willing to play games with the developers.
But I'm not willing to merge something where the maintainer is known to not care about bugs and regressions and then forces people in other projects to fix their project. Because I am *not* willing to take patches from people who don't clean up after their problems, and don't admit that it's their problem to fix."

Saying you didn't mean to be snarky (when in fact your first replay was a virtuoso study in snark) doesn't let you off the hook, nor does handing out a reading assignment.
Take your own advice.
If you don't want to help out new users and explain a few things, just move along. Don't sling thinly veiled insults. It would have taken you less verbiage to explain who these people are than to tell the OP to piss-off.
No, you are mistaken. I've always had this sig.
