One way to handle the transition into bug-fix only would be to turn
the tree over to the $stability crew at that moment. They would have
the job of nursing it to stabili
ve been multiple comments that a fix for the problem is
forthcoming. Is there some reason you have to keep talking about it?

The
granularity was 1 millsecond. Over time, all timer values from 0 to
roughly 10 minutes had been used. That resulted in 60,000 permanent
storage fragments laying about... a significant fragmentation problem.
The end was a forced recycle every month or so.

Why are we distributing such severely broken software? Heck, we seem
reluctant to include reiserfs, a pretty high quality, supported file
system. And we continue to distribute this !@#$%... There must be some
strange agenda going on to limit the use of Linux.

Clearly, the same idea has been rediscovered over and over again. The
VM/CMS case would be a good example of prior art, since it had
thousands of licenses and hundreds of thousands of end users in the
early 1980s.

How can anyone judge that a debugger was used in development of a
patch, along with system understanding, Linux knowledge, etc? The
changed code stands along with no provenance. If it reflects a shallow
understanding, it will be rejected. If it is a deep elegant fix, that
will stand on its merits.
