I took the care of reading all the thread. The guy is just asking linus
why the policy about security bugs isn't being followed. Linus replies
him telling that he do not want script kiddies to exploit the bugs. He
even says that security bugs are "normal" bugs. I think that linus
doesn't even know what full disclosure is. It's a shame for me, a linux
and openbsd user, to see the linux kernel main developer, saying things
like that. I think i might migrate my desktop machine to openbsd now.

My 2 cents,
