Hi Greg,

Perhaps its time that you just send a single email to LKML pointing where to
find the stable releases. These patch bombs are bringing vger down to its
knees, and causing delays in people's workflows. This doesn't just affect
LKML, but all other vger mailing lists. Probably because LKML has the biggest
subscriber base that patch bombs to it can slow everything else down.

I sent 3 patches to the linux-trace-devel list almost 4 hours ago, and they
still haven't shown up. I was going to point people to it tonight but it's now
going to have to wait till tomorrow.

I really do not think LKML needs to see all 1157 patches that are being
backported. There's other places to send them that will not be as disruptive.

Thanks,

-- Steve
