This is a great idea. Thanks for starting this thread! For people organizing such lunches, maybe make an evite/doodle similar so people can RSVP?

Possibly worth noting on that front: those threads involve both ridicule and fighting, and Red Hat still has this quote ("…fight you…") up in their building: <https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Gandhi#Disputed>. I think if you want to point and laugh at people pointing out abuse, you should know which side you're putting yourself on. Linux is bigger than Linus and will outlast him. At least I hope so. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding and you're laughing at Linus? Maybe we should chat about it over lunch. :)

Cheers,
