Please stop nagging, you are chasing after only one week which is excessive for something that isn't an urgent bugfix (especially with a series like this that has had many rapid repins). Several weeks to a month would be more appropriate, and then resending the patches rather than sending contentless pings is more useful. Sending mails like this just means that people have more mail to read that isn't your patch, it is more likely to get you negative attention than positive - for example, I will tend to deprioritise things where I'm being chased too urgently as I do not wish to encourage such behaviour by being seen to reward it. In general I would recommend taking a step back, slowing down, and if you are not getting a response either thinking of something else to do in parallel or trying to do things that make it easier to accept your change if there are any (sometimes it's just a case of waiting). Look at how frequently the relevant maintainers tend to respond, at what the previous review comments have been and also consider the possibility that people might take holidays or just be busy. --vt4ed5MNefdcgji4 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: Digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJTzawKAAoJELSic+t+oim9G4QQAIEBPBa74YKG1g3X0myqrKQu y/Y1m4hQ5O4r2iRxtbr9VdRdOKe8K52beu9t8KROR1P4hVDTLfOduvhR/nd8a7iT b9L3bqmGVNDiJnijGp5CMtM90zpaWSSK+9/JAbyIPVh2JKlgkGHXCzA/I0Sgtmo9 ENf5JtbR/pvBIKqFfd1ObouZPQ3fo1rbR3KZD24D4VZdfzGwnm/riSBEasYCM3CW b808Kr+9cpiD8j0TnHn4zxTdAaDLYfUmTalmHfJAKNzS0TmmBMMquiSxUBd+ln4Q F0fK+UYnja1DcW/gQCIBw8tXTHCl2duxT/LBl8QWIkH0qpolR8tiHB5f7Ontc7b7 hBuTiB1Ut5EEC6BTInzZy77JXb7Ip9MI8EHfq/eqn1y0UyAC0/1cxAC8VBEVcdja Ry38e5piTjaZutl+1lvvM8+gxasfMCGpjsN+3KEQnHyjDDubRMsfWLrl89SMqBps kX/21gdhJ9FJ2jmqheoNLQeE/IpO41dpH6xG+HRBPBCoPxOg6PCNfrCCr2JeZZX+ cWBmO+iPmlSK0eemfdNcQKm7mVEOBTkL/JbPY3oTYoFzHxoGshWr5sh88GhRmGvw F0Z86mJIuB8Vfv6QGX9Yt87VDYrDXbj2m8QIoZRgPqN1mf67AD+WjSYoevuULQCG 5xYUg6PmrlMU21jsfko/ =ReWP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --vt4ed5MNefdcgji4-- -- 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/
