I forgot about the changelogs. I'd send out version 5 now, but I'm not sure what kernel version to make the patch against. 2.6.23-rc4 is on kernel.org and I don't see any git snapshots. Additionally I never could tell what git tree was the 'mainline' as it isn't labeled with such a keyword (at least in the list of git trees I saw). - 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/
