Doubts dog anonymous Thinkpad code for Linux kernel

You can code, but you cannot hide

Doubts have arisen over lines of code an anonymous submitter sent to the Linux kernel mailing list on August 6th, http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/6/17 here. The programmer is hiding behind a pseudonym, Shem Multinymous. Fellow Kernel programmers are divided over accepting the code or not.
