Linux development still depending so much on Linus Torvalds' leadership scares me, even more than what Microsoft is doing with Windows.
With the current political environment, when Linus finally retires (or dies), if he's replacement isn't basically a clone of Torvalds himself, Linux is ripe for a potential collapse.
@alyx This will probably be the event that creates the divide. Linux will just fork itself and go on under many different names.
