SENT Formal JJ copyrights NNS and CC informal JJ moral JJ rights NNS for IN the DT different JJ parts NNS of IN the DT Linux NP source NN code NN are VBP embedded VVN in IN the DT source NN code NN . SENT The DT Credits NNS file VVP only JJ acts NNS as IN a DT hall NN of IN fame NN without IN any DT direct JJ links NNS between IN copyrighted VVN work NN and CC authorship NN .

SENT In IN effect NN , , we PP can MD isolate VV a DT small JJ micro NP world NN from IN a DT potentially RB open JJ and CC ambiguous JJ world NN and CC improve VV the DT research NN methodology NN within IN the DT micro NP world NN until IN the DT results NNS converge VV . SENT Methodologically RB , , this DT is VBZ a DT variation NN of IN the DT grounded VVN theory NN approach NN , , often RB used VVN in IN qualitative JJ social JJ studies NNS Glaser NP and CC Strauss NP , , 1967 CD . SENT When WRB the DT automated JJ tools NNS produce VVP conceptually RB coherent JJ results NNS for IN example NN categorize VV the DT data NNS in IN known VVN countries NNS and CC the DT tools NNS do VVP not RB produce VV any DT exception NN reports NNS , , the DT domain NN has VHZ been VBN adequately RB understood VVN .

SENT Both DT are VBP very RB good JJ , , and CC demonstrate VV your PP$ mastery NN of IN the DT subject JJ material NN .

SENT It PP helps VVZ to TO understand VV exactly RB how WRB it PP works VVZ , , and CC being VBG able JJ to TO reverse VV engineer VV a DT piece NN of IN code NN is VBZ the DT best JJS way NN to TO see VV that IN . SENT This DT still RB leaves VVZ the DT problem NN of IN where WRB to TO find VV this DT type NN of IN advanced JJ training NN . SENT Training NN venues NNS that WDT cover VVP this DT topic NN are VBP highly RB specialized VVN in IN nature NN as IN they PP cater VVP to TO an DT advanced JJ skill NN set NN , , or CC training VVG the DT trainer NN courses NNS if IN you PP will MD .

SENT I PP would MD argue VV that IN these DT are VBP some DT of IN the DT best JJS presenters NNS in IN computer NN security NN today NN . SENT ConclusionOnce NP you PP have VHP reached VVN this DT point NN in IN your PP$ career NN , , you'll JJ find VVP that IN many JJ new JJ things NNS are VBP learnt VVN on IN your PP$ own JJ .

SENT I PP sincerely RB hope VVP that IN this DT article NN was VBD able JJ to TO clarify VV these DT skills NNS for IN you PP , , and CC help VV you PP out RP in IN your PP$ quest NN for IN possible JJ skills NNS upgrading VVG .

SENT Tanenbaum's NP argumentation NN only RB increased VVD our PP$ doubt NN about IN the DT Torvalds NP story NN because IN the DT comparisons NNS were VBD too RB unbelievable JJ .

SENT Well RB , , I PP have VHP news NN for IN Brown NP . SENT Version NN 0 CD . SENT 01 CD of IN the DT Linux NP kernel NN was VBD crap NN . SENT It PP had VHD no DT file NN permissions NNS , , which WDT only RB got VVD implemented VVD when WRB Linus NP nearly RB wiped VVD the DT file NN partitiion NN table NN from IN his PP$ hard JJ drive NN . SENT At IN one CD point NN , , Linus NP had VHD implemented VVN device NN files NNS in IN dev NP , , and CC wanted VVD to TO dial VV up RP the DT university NN computer NN and CC debug VV his PP$ terminal JJ emulation NN code NN again RB .

SENT Oops NP . SENT Now RB his PP$ master NN boot NN record NN started VVD with IN ATDT NP and CC the DT university NN modem NN pool NN phone NN number NN . SENT I PP think VVP he PP implemented VVN permission NN checking VVG the DT following VVG day NN . SENT Really RB , , the DT claims NNS that IN he PP couldn't NN write VV an DT O NP S NP are VBP stupid JJ . SENT Any DT Uni NN student NN with IN a DT bit NN of IN nouse NP and CC some DT good JJ ideas NNS about IN Unix NP concepts NNS could MD do VV this DT , , it's NNS just RB Linus NP decided VVD that IN he PP didn't VVD like IN Minix NP very RB much RB . SENT Tanenbaum NP told VVD us PP about IN the DT Coherent JJ project NN repeatedly RB , , but CC it PP was VBD easy JJ to TO research NN that IN it PP was VBD a DT completely RB different JJ situation NN . SENT It PP wasn't VVD a DT solo NN effort NN , , it PP was VBD a DT team NN . SENT Second RB , , the DT timeline NN was VBD wrong JJ .

SENT He PP got VVD his PP$ timeline NN slightly RB wrong JJ . SENT . SENT . SENT but CC really RB this DT proves VVZ nothing NN , , as IN Tanenbaum NP pointed VVD out RP on IN the DT same JJ page NN Brown NP refers VVZ to TO . SENT In IN 1983 CD , , a DT now RB defunct JJ company NN named VVD the DT Mark NP Williams NP company NN produced VVD and CC sold VVD a DT very RB good JJ UNIX NP clone NN called VVD Coherent JJ . SENT Most JJS of IN the DT work NN was VBD done VVN by IN three CD ex JJ students NNS from IN the DT University NP of IN Waterloo NP . SENT Dave NP Conroy NP , , Randall NP Howard NP , , and CC Johann NP George NP . SENT It PP took VVD them PP two CD years NNS . SENT But CC they PP produced VVD not RB only RB the DT kernel NN , , but CC the DT C NP compiler NN , , shell NN , , and CC ALL PDT the DT UNIX NP utilities NNS . SENT This DT is VBZ far RB more JJR work NN than IN just RB making VVG a DT kernel NN . SENT It PP is VBZ likely JJ that IN the DT kernel NN took VVD less JJR than IN a DT man NN year NN . SENT So IN the DT team NN didn't VVD just RB focus VV on IN the DT kernel NN . SENT They PP had VHD to TO make VV all PDT the DT utilities NNS that WDT go VVP with IN an DT operating NN system NN . SENT Linux NP just RB ported VVD the DT GNU NN tools NNS and CC got VVD it PP all DT working NN . SENT So RB Brown NP is VBZ correct JJ about IN the DT Coherent JJ team NN working VVG under IN different JJ conditions NNS . SENT Regrettably RB for IN Brown NP , , however RB , , this DT only RB makes VVZ his PP$ initial JJ argument NN weaker JJR . SENT Either DT way NN , , it PP wasn't VVD six CD months NNS . SENT On IN his PP$ website NN , , it PP seems VVZ now RB Tanenbaum NP is VBZ comparing VVG the DT inventors NNS of IN Unix NP , , Dennis NP Ritchie NP , , and CC Kenneth NP Thompson NP to TO Torvalds NP . SENT This DT comparison NN if IN anything NN should MD demonstrate VV why WRB AdTI NP was VBD just RB not RB very RB convinced VVN by IN the DT professor NN . SENT Both DT Ritchie NP and CC Thompson NP had VHD exceptional JJ familiarity NN with IN MULTICS NP and CC then RB wrote VVD UNIX NP from IN scratch NN . SENT Completely RB different JJ from IN Linus NP , , who WP says VVZ he PP started VVD with IN nothing NN and CC had VHD no DT experience NN . SENT Another DT reason NN this DT is VBZ interesting JJ is VBZ because IN the DT Ritchie NP , , Thompson NP kernel NN was VBD 11 CD , , 000 CD lines NNS of IN code NN over IN a DT number NN of IN years NNS , , and CC the DT Torvalds NP kernel NN was VBD 32 CD , , 000 CD in IN under IN a DT year NN . SENT Yes UH , , let's NNS look VVP at IN the DT argument NN . SENT Firstly RB , , Brown NP states NNS that IN Dennis NP Ritchie NP and CC Kenneth NP Thompson NP had VHD extensive JJ MULTICS NP understanding NN . SENT True UH , , but CC then RB again RB they PP wrote VVD on IN a DT PDP NP 11 CD from IN memory NN which WDT took VVD large JJ amounts NNS of IN time NN to TO compile VV anything NN and CC was VBD , , at IN any DT rate NN , , using VVG a DT completely RB different JJ architecture NN . SENT Brown NP also RB fails VVZ to TO note VV that IN 0 CD . SENT 01 CD of IN Linux NP was VBD released VVN to TO the DT Internet NN and CC he PP started VVD reincorporating VVG contributed VVN code NN almost RB immediately RB . SENT This DT fact NN has VHZ never RB been VBN in IN dispute NN , , and CC it PP certainly RB doesn't VVD take VV away RP the DT fact NN that IN Linus NP did VVD in IN fact NN write VVP the DT O NP S NP kernel NN from IN scratch NN . SENT As RB for IN the DT lines NNS of IN code NN submitted VVN so IN what WP . SENT More JJR hardware NN was VBD supported VVN than IN older JJR architectures NNS , , and CC this DT happened VVD mainly RB because IN a DT larger JJR pool NN of IN people NNS had VHD easy JJ access NN to TO x NN 86 CD machines NNS , , peripherals NNS and CC documentation NN . SENT With IN more JJR people NNS and CC more JJR hardware NN that IN they PP want VVP to TO support VV , , I'd NP suggest VVP you PP get VVP more JJR lines NNS of IN code NN . SENT I PP mean VVP , , Brown NP hasn't NP even RB bothered VVD to TO seperate VV the DT lines NNS of IN code NN that WDT make VVP up RP the DT core JJ O NP S NP process NN managment NN , , memory NN management NN , , file NN management NN , , etc FW and CC the DT lines NNS of IN code NN needed VVN to TO manipulate VV hardware NN device NN drivers NNS . SENT So RB much RB for IN in IN depth NN analysis NN that WDT backs VVZ up RP his PP$ assertions NNS . SENT Another DT problem NN with IN Tanenbaum's NP logic NN is VBZ that IN he PP only RB presents VVZ examples NNS of IN people NNS that WDT were VBD Unix NP licensees NNS , , had VHD Unix NP source NN code NN , , or CC who WP were VBD exceptionally RB familiar JJ with IN software NN development NN . SENT He PP cannot NN provide VV one CD example NN reasonably RB comparable JJ to TO the DT Torvalds NP case NN . SENT Maybe RB because IN this DT wasn't NN asked VVD . SENT According VVG to TO Tanenbaum NP , , He PP kept VVD asking VVG , , in IN different JJ forms NNS , , how WRB one CD person NN could MD write VV an DT operating VVG system NN all RB by IN himself PP . SENT He PP simply RB didn't VVD believe VV that DT was VBD possible JJ . SENT So RB I PP had VHD to TO give VV him PP more JJR history NN , , sigh NN . SENT Then RB he PP went VVD over IN the DT history NN of IN Unix NP and CC how WRB people NNS developed VVD things NNS . SENT In IN case NN anyone NN is VBZ getting VVG lost VVN here RB , , let VV me PP briefly RB summarise VV Brown's NP argument NN . SENT Linus NP Torvalds NP , , a DT young JJ university NN student NN with IN only RB one CD year's NN experience NN in IN C NP programming NN and CC operating VVG system NN research NN , , would MD be VB unable JJ to TO achieve VV what WP more JJR experienced JJ programmers NNS were VBD able JJ to TO do VV in IN far RB more JJR time NN even RB though IN they PP worked VVD with IN a DT different JJ platform NN and CC were VBD still RB inventing VVG how WRB Unix NP should MD work VV sorry RB , , I PP added VVD this DT last JJ bit NN I NN couldn't NN help VV it PP . SENT . SENT Issue NN 2 CD . SENT Why WRB do VVP accounts NNS continually RB assert VVP that IN Torvalds NP wrote VVD Linux NP from IN scratch NN .
