My bad. I've always sucked at filling out paperwork, and I didn't expect this to go in as is. But for the sake of following the official procedures (well, step 11 of of SubmittingPatches, it's not mentioned in any of the 26 steps of SubmitChecklist), here's the requested certification: Signed-off-by: Rob Landley Reviewed-by: D.

Personally I'd have trimmed the cc: list but filling things out in triplicate seems to be all the rage these days. > You have a bit of work to do here... As I mentioned in 0/2, yes. But "release early, release often" and all that. (Or did we stop doing that now the Linux Foundation's in charge? I'm still stuck in the hobbyist era from back before we had a foundation with committees and a hierarchy where you need to go through proper channels and three dozen patch submission steps in two different files and all that. I'm trying to keep up, but I've always been really bad at bureaucracy...) > greg k-h > .
