Someone needs to host the Linux kernel code, and going forward, it will be the content delivery network Akamai.

    This support is provided at no cost, reflecting Akamai’s commitment to giving back to the open-source community.

    Sounds like it wasn’t a choice so much as one of the biggest CDNs in the world giving a free hand out to a project it relies on itself.

    Anyways a lot of companies use Akamai, I don’t think its odd.
