About 6 dedicated paid people (and a whole bunch more volunteers) to manage all the branches and review and administrate each patch to reitegrate all the various patches into a few production trees. The Linux kernel workflow, being security and stability sensitive in nearly every line of code is totally different from a normal project, and extremely costly in manpower. Moreover it relies on some central (bosses) being able to put in a lot of time into the project on a regular, guaranteed basis, which is hard if they are not at least partially fulltime. -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus.freepascal.org http://lists.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
