Bcachefs lead developer Kent Overstreet published a Patreon post this evening entitled “Trouble in the kernel” where he explained:
"TLDR: the future of bcachefs in the kernel is uncertain, and lots of things aren’t looking good.
Linus has said he isn’t accepting my 6.13 pull request, per “an open issue with the CoC board”, and at this point I have no idea what’s going on with the CoC board. I, for my part, have felt for quite some time that there are issues about our culture and the way we do work that need to be raised, and that hasn’t been going anywhere - hence this post."
It appears that the source of this violation can be found in this Linux kernel mailing list thread.
so next we can expect a tirade from Hans Reiser now that ReiserFS was deleted from the kernel?
A little off-topic: anyone else read this as “BCA Chefs”, initially?
Really can’t wait for the coc board to self destruct at this rate so we can get a better alternative to Linux already.
I heard on cachyos forums that the maintainer of bcachefs can be quirky.
Get your head examined. And get the fuck out of here with this shit.
Yes, language like this is clearly unacceptable in a productive discussion.
Offtopic, but this reminded me that the Linux kernel has a CoC. Aren’t the recent comments by Linus on the removal of russian maintainers, where he called several kernel developers paid actors, a CoC violation as well? Or have these comments w.r.t. to the CoC already been discussed?
