    Author choosing some odd phrasing to group murder and interactions on the LKML.

    Edit: The letter does include “social mistake in the Linux community” but it’s still odd to phrase it that way in an article about it, imo.

      He was not referring to the murder using that phrase though. He was detailing how he poorly interacted with others on the project.

        Yes, which is why it is a little odd for the article author to include it without context, because we all immediately think of one social mistake that has nothing to do with Linux.
