Linus would certainly reject any attempt I would make to push code with that kind of variable naming in it. So instead of blindly going: 1) dave try push to linus 2) linus says fix horrible variable studlyCaps names 3) dave asks patch submitter to fix 4) submitter submits new patch 5) dave retries pushing to linus I'm reducing it to one step, by asking that it be done now, thus saving a lot of wasted time on everyone's part. Submitting your first major patch or set of changes can be incredibly frustrating. It took more than a year before people like Linus would regularly and smoothly integrate my work, most of it would come right back to me for fixups. Don't worry though, if the work is truly variable, someone will pick up the ball and do the necessary coding style fixups et al. to get it integrated. - 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/
