Is it possible to educate the organization?

Is it possible for knowledge to flow backwards,
i.e. from the Linux team back in?

As a mathematician, this really, really bothers me.

It leaves traces of badly named objects and new people reading
it would pick this bad naming up, and experienced people would
either be confused or find it incorrect.

Let's fix this at the source.

Regards,
Luben
