This is my daily nightmare. How do you vet someone in skill, devotion and influence to make sure it doesn't all collapse?
worse come to worse there is forking. look at the bsd's.
I don't consider that the worst case, I consider that the secret weapon off FOSS, and what Linus would prefer to see. I don't think he wants Linux to be a kingdom who is afraid of what happens when their king dies. If the people aren't empowered to take the code, make it their own, and continue owning their devices, then they weren't in it for the freedom, just the freeloading.
