Ok...firstly, need to ask to Russell. (Added Russell in To) Hi Russell, Sorry for bothering... If possible, please read this thread :-) So... May/Should I merge sound tree for avoiding build error and conflict between each other for 37 merge window instead of cherry-pick? Or sound maintainer should rebase his tree so that can make some branch which can support to avoid build error for me? ...Or because Stephen already informed about that so you or Linus can care just current tree during merge window? Which one is better to us? Or another method? Please let me know. Thanks and Merry Christmas everyone :-) Best regards, Kgene. -- Kukjin Kim , Senior Engineer, SW Solution Development Team, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. -- 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/
