Vetter: Maintainers don't scale
Daniel Vetter has posted the text ofhis linux.conf.au talk on kernel maintenance. "At least for me,review isn't just about ensuring good code quality, but also aboutdiffusing knowledge and improving understanding. At first there's maybe oneperson, the author (and that's not a given), understanding the code. Aftergood review there should be at least two people who fully understand it,including corner cases. And that's also why I think that groupmaintainership is the only way to run any project with more than oneregular contributor."
