Greg KH Leaves SUSE For Linux Foundation 20
New submitter udas writes "Greg Kroah-Hartman, maintainer of the Linux kernel's stable branch, has left his job with SUSE Linux. He is now a fellow at the Linux Foundation. 'There were no direct conflicts working for SUSE, as the people there understand how important the individual developer, and their voice, is in the Linux community,' Kroah-Hartman told Ars this week in an e-mail interview. 'But, working in a vendor-neutral environment like the Linux Foundation allows me to spend a larger amount of time interacting with other companies and vendors, as well as helping Linux out in environments that were not necessarily the focus of my previous employer.'"

I second that. It was him that included my first kernel driver ( http://kerneltrap.org/mailarchive/linux-driver-devel/2010/8/5/6885969 [kerneltrap.org] ). He is also a Gentoo developer belonging to the kernel team: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/kernel/ [gentoo.org]

You were probably at the Attachmate company website and not the Attachmate Group website. Attachmate is one of four companies owned by the Attachmate Group, the other three are NetIQ, Novell, and SuSE.
