Because I thought ccing everyone on all the changes was not what was expected. Does the DT guy want to see all the non-DT changes?
this is my first time sending a big patch set that crosses subsystems like this. I'm not sure what the preferd way to do things so I used get_maintainer.pl on each patch to add thime in the cc: tags just above the signed off's. Should I have simply concatinated the list of mainttainers and CC them all on all the patches? > > still confused, its my fault. --mark
