Linus himself freely admits that Linux has grown so large, it is impossible for
him to handle all patch request by himself anymore, and the vger arrangement
obviously ain't working that well either.
It is unfair to unload all the Linux burden on Mr. Torvalds alone.
He has a life too, y'know?
Plus, recently publicity Linux has gotten will only increase the demand for
Linux. All that may mean is an even more rapid growth pattern for Linux, and
consequently, the burden will get heavier and heavier.
Frankly I do not forsee any single human being able to handle that kind of heavy
load all by himself. And considering that Mr. Torvalds is already overwhelmed as
he is, can we really expect him to continue provide reasonable responses to the
demands of the rapidly growing Linux community?
Now that the problem has been identified, what should we do about it?
Any suggestion?
Respectfully,

PS. My sincere apology if this is not the forum for such discussion, but
something must be done or Linux's growth will be severely hampered by the
aforementioned bottleneck.
