BTW, how serious have you been back at KS when you were talking about pull requests killing a thousand of lines of code being acceptable at any point in the cycle? Because right now I'm sitting on a pile that removes 2-3 times as much (~-2KLoC for stuff that got considerable testing for most of the architectures, -3KLoC if I include fork/clone/vfork unification series) and seeing how maintainers of a bunch of embedded architectures seem to be MIA... The idea of saying "screw them" and sending a pull request becomes more and more tempting every day ;-) -- 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/
