And they where the best way to basically halt the whole thing. Right now the only thing you would achieve would be to kick out the other people with wich I work *together*. Oh perhaps noone of them would have got involved... I simply don't like to idea of lonely developement on a separate small iland called a "dedicated mailing list". And I don't see any need for it - the traffic on LKML isn't that high if one learn how to use mozillas filtering facilities. - 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/
