From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I think that there is now a phase were the bugs that are findable by AI will be reported en masse, and there will be a period of patching them and working through the queue. After this we will end up with better software overall, which is what Linus predicted a couple months ago.
That said there still needs to be a penality for crap reports, because those are still received, making us loose time on what is functionally just spam.
