So what's the recomended way to proceed Christoph> here? I don't think there's any other way to proceed. For each version, you should carefully note down the feedback that you received and how you are responding to each suggestion, and include that with the patch file. But it's too much to expect for people to keep context for a patch under review, so even though it generates a lot of email, I think that including the whole series is the only way to go. Perhaps the list admins disagree with me though ;) - R. - 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/
