The tracking of who submittend and who committed patches wasn't there just over a year ago so sometimes it's hard to tell who actually posted that patch if someone like Andrew or Linus committed it. But in most of the changesets on the bkbits site you can go back over 2 years and not see anything from namesys people. Nearly all of the fixes commited in the past 2-3 years are from SuSe. Jim.
