Hmm... I don't think it is blindly, at least, we can not say: "if tool chain has issues, we should not use it, if we have no related hard wares, it is useless to compile them". We are focus on the contribution, not on whether others have issues or 'qualifications', if we are sure this patch should be useful, we need go ahead. For normal members, it is not quite important, but for managerial members or a company, of cause, they will/should understand these rules. > Thanks, > //richard > > > Thanks. -- Chen Gang -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
