...and remember, Linux has the final say about any submissions against the Linux kernel. And he thinks specs are a bad idea? Wow...no wonder the quality of Linux is so crappy. The problem with specs is not that they're inherently bad...it's that people aren't forced to write complete ones and aren't forced to maintain them. A complete, high-level spec is a very, very good thing. It's trying to piece together incomprehensible pieces of code that leads to components that don't bloody work together.
For fuck's sake...if software designers don't start going through much more rigorous, formal processes, software is always going to be a buggy piece of shit.
