Linux CoC Announces Decision Following Recent Bcachefs Drama


Following the recent messaging from Bcachefs lead developer Kent Oversteet that Bcachefs changes for Linux 6.13 were rejected on the basis of his Code of Conduct, the Linux CoC committee has now formally announced their decision.

Therefore it looks like no pull requests from Bcachefs lead developer Kent Overstreet will be honored for the current Linux 6.13 cycle... It stops short of ejecting Bcachefs from the mainline kernel or other actions, but remains to be seen definitively if his pull requests will then be honored for Linux 6.14+ or any other caveats. Kent has already responded to the CoC committee message and acknowledges the impact along with somewhat of a brief apology to " things getting this heated the other day" followed by additional commentary.
