I'm still using linux and openbsd. There are technical reasons for me to
do that. The problem here isn't the main guy said something stupid. The
problem here, and this is what is making me more annoyed, is that i used
to have a point of view, and thinking of Linus as a great guy, who made
something important. He actually did, but now he is making it just plain
wrong. You know, security bugs are security bugs. The other ones are the
others. Simple like that. Linus is not just putting all of them in the
same sack, but he is also offending who does not, like the openbsd dev
team. This is an unacceptable attitude from someone who is in the front
line of an entire operational system, and, who wanting it or not, has a
big influence, at least in linux world. So, i will not change my OS
because of what Linus said or not. I will change it because i think
openbsd is better. Plain simple like that. If i do not change, there
will be technical reasons for that, like my sound card not working on
openbsd, or something like that (mention to note, it does not work
properly on linux).

My regards,
