I know the author probably didn't mean anything by it, but I dislike the implication that only a dude could bring ZFS to Linux.

Stop trying to push some bullshit agendas.

"In the early 1960s, dude became prominent in surfer culture as a synonym of guy or fella. The female equivalent was "dudette" or "dudess," but these have both fallen into disuse, and "dude" is now also used as a unisex term." -Wikipedia

I've yet to hear anyone use "dudette" or "dudess" while I see "dude" applied to females all the time.

Apparently, this is referring to this comment in the OP:

> Awesome. Srsly. And if any of the people who worked to bring the joy of ZFS to Linux read this – dude, I owe you a beer.

Nothing wrong with that comment I can see. By taking offense, you are doing your own cause a disservice, you person of unknown gender.

Thanks for signalling your virtue, dude.

not to be rude but what are you talking about? I don't see that anywhere in the post.
