Hans Reiser of ReiserFS fame was today found guilty of first degree murder in Oakland, California. Quoth the source article: "In a murder case with no body, no crime scene, no reliable eyewitness and virtually no physical evidence, the prosecution began the trial last November with a daunting task ahead...
The turning point in the trial came when Reiser took the stand in his own defense March 3." Whether he really did it or not, Hans basically just didn't know when to shut up.
