Please teach me a little more because I am not experienced enough in this community. I checked MAINTAINERS, but I could not find arm@kernel.org. Is it documented somewhere? I found ARM SUB-ARCHITECTURES entry in that file, but it does not mention the responsible individuals. (I assume, you and Olof are the ones.) ARM SUB-ARCHITECTURES L: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org (moderated for non-subscribers) S: Maintained F: arch/arm/mach-*/ F: arch/arm/plat-*/ T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm/arm-soc.git I have one more question. Are you receiving pull requests from each sub-arch maintainer? Or should every patch be submitted to arm@kernel.org and applied by you (or other ARM-SoC maintainers)? I have not earned enough reputations in this ML, so I know it is too early for me to handle pull-reqs. I understand the general development process of Linux, but the maintainership of the ARM-SoC subsystem looks more hierarchized, so I just want to know its development process correctly. -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada -- 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/
