Hi folks,
I really was not my or Marcs intention to skip any discussions.
Rwatson told us that
if we like to see it in 8.0, we need to approve it by RE and commit
it before the 1. of july,
and that's what I've done. Sorry if I've upset anyone.
Personally I think the tool is quite handy, better than net/wol
(which doesn't seem to
work with different interfaces), wake doesn't need any strange
libaries as dependencies
and it just a very short one (4k)
If the concensus is to back it out, I'll back it out.
The only thing I can say is that this code has been around since quite
some time and is in use at many places without any problems. This is
nothing big, actually really small, but it is really useful. And
since Wake-on-LAN is now in almost all computers I think having a tool
to use it is justified. This little command can not make your computer
crash, nor cause any problems, so I really do not fully understand why
all the fuss around it (e.g. I find that some people are exaggerating
a little bit, given how small of an addition wake(8) actually is).
