Jiri, do you have any actual plans to try to pick up these patches, notify the submitters that the patches have been accepted or rejected, and forward them on when appropriate? Otherwise, the patches sit for _months_ without any action. That's simply too long. Should another mechanism or pathway be created instead? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
