From the comments:

Linus reports to IBM/RedHat and their requirements are now Linux/Linus requirements. As a result today we can officially stop calling the Linux kernel "open".

~~And a large part of the open stack as well, including g-libraries, gnome, wayland and everything hosted on freedesktop.org.~~ *

EDIT: * No relation at all.

And a large part of the open stack as well, including g-libraries, gnome, wayland and everything hosted on freedesktop.org.

This is just phoronix commenters trying to extend the anger to their favorite hate targets.

True, freedesktop.org has no direct affiliation with the Linux Foundation.
