Hi,

the discussion is irrelevant. Despite what everybody thinks, Linus thinks
/proc must be not binary, so it will stay that way for those of us who run
Linus kernels...

I can inmagine people like Alan ignoring this discussion after such a
statement, the outcome of the discussion is irrelevant for the kernel
development.
