Yes, you can. It's a bit trickier, in that you'll probably want to include a mailing list archive link in v8 and explicitly point out that the subject has changed, as well as a followup to v7 that points to the list archive of v8 to help people find the changed name. But there is nothing technically stopping you from renaming a patch to something more appropriate. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
