It may be testable, but it's the wrong test.
What you should test is a project run by _Linus Torvalds_ under the current open development schema vs. a project run by Linus under a more formal development schema.
If you compare stuff that Linus manages vs. almost anyone else, the test will go in Linus's favor, because he's a damned good project manager and they are very very rare.
ObKernel: I've noticed that my memory detection code doesn't seem to work properly on the HP Omnibook 5700 I bought recently -- I've put 128mb into the box, but the kernel is only returning 64mb. Before I put Mastodon (CORE is now 99% a.out, BASIC is about 50%) to one side and start poking around at memory management again, has anyone else tried recent 2.1 kernels (or the recent -AC 2.0 kernels) on a really fat Omnibook?
