That's an interesting idea, thanks, but we'd need both money and a new hire. There is an opportunity cost with using up an engineer and we're swamped with work. As I've said before, if you really like this sort of stuff we'd like to hire you. Yeah, it's not as politically correct as working on 100% GPLed source, I can't help that, but it is technically challenging, far more so than most people realize and that makes it fun. If we get a new hire from the kernel list I'll stick the changeset markers into the CVS tree so you can group the patches, I can see where that might be helpful for debugging. -- --- Larry McVoy lm at bitmover.com http://www.bitkeeper.com - 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/
