    SubjectRe: Linux needs new leadership.
    I nominated Edsger Wybe Dijkstra and feel this is the
    best choice for a number of reasons:

    * He's good at concurrency.

    * Would bring a high academic profile to Linux.

    * Good programming practices would be enforced.
    We'd take a year off to remove all of our
    goto's and rewrite the kernel in Pascal.

    * Enforcement of non-anthropomorphic discussion
    of computers and programs.

    * No one can pronounce his name properly, thus
    preventing the complacency that would come
    with a leader named "Smyth" or "Jones".
