Capturing the data matters for lots of things. That you don't have the time to be the filter for that info for networking is also fine. Alan, you really stretch yourself thin doing this stuff all the time. Now imagine if you invested this effort in educating people and getting them to be better bug reporters, sending the right info to the right place? I think that, along with some actual development I actually miss seeing you be able to do that, is a much better allocation of your time and talents. You're grovelling at the bottom of the barrel, it's time to start skimming from the top instead. Things that matters will come back, it doesn't disappear. - 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/
