My conflict tolerance is already rising. i.e. I will fix up such trivial to fix conflicts. I am more concerned with complexity of conflicts than mere number (so "too many conflicts" should be read as "too many conflicts that I can't figure out in a shortish period of time"). If it gets too bad, it falls into Linus' "the person who changes the APIs bears the pain" basket. :-) --=20 Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au --Signature=_Fri__29_Feb_2008_17_43_26_+1100_IqQYad./n51zH+g2 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHx6mTTgG2atn1QN8RAvSmAJ97lO81SekVLx1e2yAoDqQm4GlKXQCfVUcL cE3HcGeRZ9SUvP3THJBtyIc= =rY/a -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Fri__29_Feb_2008_17_43_26_+1100_IqQYad./n51zH+g2-- -- 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/
