I think a broken-up patch series isn't totally wrong to do for a first look at these RFC patches. Of course the series needs to become a single patch before it is committed to a tree whose history needs to support bijection, e.g. -mm. However, Dave's postings lack a References: header which refer to his 00/12 posting. (Also, a bonus in the 00/12 posting would be a listing of all patch titles in the series and the total diffstat of the series, but nearly nobody does this.) -- Stefan Richter -=====-=-=== ==-- ===-= http://arcgraph.de/sr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
