Audit Linux? (Score 1)

I can't believe no one has proposed this yet. Maybe I just missed it. How about an independent audit of the kernel, etc. source code? You know; something like what the OpenBSD guys did, but with an eye toward the heritage of the code. Three advantages: if there is any questionable code, it can be replaced, it will increase customer confidence, and Darl and his ilk will be left standing there holding their tiny, little ... uh ... stock options. Of course, I have no idea what this would entail. Someone's got to pay for it. It might be worth it for Red Hat to pick up the tab.
