So you think people who send hundreds of small typo fixes are worth more than say someone who spends 3 months writing a new driver and gets it in with one commit ? Curious.... And very gameable of course. James proposal at least has the advantage of simplicity, of drawing from a rough set of relevant people (far from perfectly) and a certain amount of random changeover according to the KS of the year I would make only one change personally - extend an email vote to the people on the final invite list who can't for various reasons make it. - 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/
