LinuxCon: Linus Torvalds Tells All as Linux Hits 20

"Many people in the world consider Linus Torvalds, the creator of Linux, to be a visionary. Linus Torvalds himself does not.

In a session at LinuxCon with kernel developer Greg Kroah-Hartman, Torvalds detailed his view of what he does and what is wrong and right in the kernel world.

"I'm not really a visionary guy," Torvalds said. "My vision extends to pragmatic issues for the next kernel release."
