Honestly, it is not just the low traffic, it's also that most of the patches (90%?) are drivers that hardly anyone cares about. There is very little core work going on in linux-scsi, which would be a lot harder to discuss and review (making heated tones more likely to happen). This is not what happens in other areas (net for example, just to remain within drivers/). > In fact, I've got to say that I wouldn't like > to see *any* behaviour standard imposed ... they're all basically cover > for power plays (or soon get abused as power plays); the only real way > to display leadership on behaviour standards is by example not by fiat. This I completely agree with, and you set a great example of civility.
