That's part of what I'm talking about. Giving a 'f you' sign on a public conference is not professional at all. I mean I know that it's Linus who did it, and we all like Linus, so we give him a free pass with his sh-ttalk, at the same time when we would condemn anyone else who uses such rhetoric who isn't Linus, but in closed-source software development world such clashes happen all the time, each month. Whether a software project in such environment is a success or failure depends on whether people will get along with each other, or not. In case of Nvidia/Wayland I think that simply people just don't want to get along each other.
