In this case, since we're only talking > about the 2.6.37 kernel, I prefer to use the mailing lists. Just do Cc: stable@kernel.org [2.6.37] or similar. It's quite common. So EVEN IF you want to email people around about the patch separately, do add the "Cc: stable" marker. It's worthwhile information about the patch for everybody involved. Linus
