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.

Fun background info: Trusted Representatives don't actually carry their shard of the key (to prevent exactly this scenario), they have (iirc) a keycard which allows them to access the secure storage medium where their different pieces are stored.

Every software system worth its salt should have safeguards against Nokia nunchuck attacks.

I don't get what the others are talking about, there is nothing after this, even through scribe or on an archive.org snapshot made recently

Taking him down would put the fear into the rest and, hopefully, get some intel on the other keyholders through the IRC backchannels.
