....my apologies. I screwed up sending the patches through quilt. anyway I have received the following comments from Andrew Morton, which I will incorporate before sending out saner looking patches. sorry again, RP Andrew's comments follows: ---------------------------------------- Frankly, I don't even know what these patches _do_, and haven't spent the time to try to find out. If these patches are merged, how do we expect end-users to find out how to use the new capabilities? A few paragraphs in the patch #1 changelog would help. A high-level description of the new capability which explains what it does and why it would be a useful thing for Linux. And maybe some deeper information in a Documentation/ file. Right now, there might well be a lot of people who could use these new features, but they don't even know that these patches provide them! It's all a bit of a mystery, really. --------------------------------------------------------------------- - 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/
