Even if you consider all the information in the linked article, the 3.4% is misleading. There's no indication that 100% of the linux-related work the Linux Foundation does falls into the 'linux kernel support' bucket.

More to the point, the foundation's web site doesn't say that its mission relates to Linux. It talks about software communities, open source etc.

It would be helpful for LF to provide a summary of Linux-related spending that is distinct from kernel development. Obviously not an easy line to draw, but better that LF draws the line than external observers.
