Maybe there will be some more people using kbuild-2.5 in their trees within a few weeks/monthes, and maybe one day - may not be today, may not be tomorrow - but one day it will get into the common tree. > If I were Keith, I'd be rather upset, too. Anyway, he shouldn't be. There are lots of people appreciating his work, and many of us are very grateful for it. So am I. It's going to be a long way, but finally kbuild-2.4 can't stand while kbuild-2.5 (hopefully) goes on. So we'll get it in by some time in the future.
