I don’t know what It was expecting but it wasn’t quite that. I was initially going to make a crass joke but decided to read it before… now I don’t want to make the joke.

I stopped reading there. I’m not interested in his views.
UPDATE: Nope. He did. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Reiser. I’m really unsure why they reached out to him.

Yes, it’s a weird part of Linux history. He wrote the code, which is part of the mainline kernel, and his name is on it. Reaching out before removing this seems natural. They didn’t invite him to a party.
Hans Reiser and ReiserFS were controversial before the murder. I guess, maintainers want some sort of closure and move on.
