I find examining a single patch deep down in a quilt series very hard, unless I learn and use quilt, since the patches are all linearized, and each patch is dependent on th previous patch. diffing the tips of branches in a SCM has been far more friendly. So I find my old and new SCM's preferable to a quilt series -- since any feature can be compared to any other feature, or upstream, independently, and easily; this is terribly hard to do with quilt. manoj -- "God is a comedian playing to an audience too afraid to laugh."
