I'm trying to make the point that your patch, to me, looks to be
trying to overcome a problem for which we have had a solution all
the time.
Thanks for this clear statement of your objection. I'm afraid I don't
agree. Even though .config exists (and is even used by osstest, so I
know about it) I don't think it is as good as having it in
menuconfig.
But you realize that my objection is (was) more towards the reasoning
behind the change, than towards the change itself. If, as a community,
we decide to undo what we might now call a mistake, and if we're ready
to deal with the consequences, so be it.
Would you mind to explain the fall out you expect from this patch? Are
you worry more people may contact secur...@xen.org for non-security issue?
Cheers,
