The BDFL Wars Superthread
 
Which BDFL(s) do you like best? Please explain your poll votes in detail.

I voted for Dick and Linus because I have read mostly about them, but hardly any about the others... there are many other pillars of the Linux world I would also vote for. !

ps just one thing though,I really don,t think they are any kind of dictator,just a minor insignificant point... LOL

Off to big General with this - not technical and, with the inclusion of Stallman on the list, not even Linux!

BDFL? Please define.

This is crap, where is Patrick Volkerding!? What kind of poll is this!? You could have at least added an 'other' option! :mad:

I'm not voting until we have a Patrick Volkerding choice. Sheesh, how can you create a BDFL thread without Patrick Volkerding. Kids these days.

Same here. In fact, if you don't add it, I'll vote for Ballmer.

+1.

Jeebizz 10-26-2010 12:30 PM
But he didn't. I say we purposely skew his poll. Everyone vote for Ballmer! :D

I'll go first then.
