From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I have no context on it so maybe my post was unfair.
Putting myself in the position of reaching out, I think I'd just have made the decision that it should need removed, and removed it from the kerne without reaching out. I feel that somebody who killed his wife doesn't get to be involved in those conversations.
That purely my opinion saved I appreciate it's likely not popular. Just being honest. I can see the other side. And I do appreciate the part about closure. That makes sense.
