I LIKE the idea of people writing the Linux kernel code

Does anyone do this?
From What I can see here: www.cs.tut.fi/~tta/demography.pdf
(Specifically sections 5 and 6) a few must, but a considerable number
appear to be *large* companies.
I am appalled that a coder can approve his or
her own patch. Interesting stuff.
Er well in kernel development they can't. They can run it on their own
system etc and pass it around, but to get it into the mainline kernel
there are processes and QA proceedures the kernel project has put in place.
