Linville" To: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org Subject: new stuff for 3.4 needs to be posted _now_ Message-ID: <20120509023907.GB2533@tuxdriver.com> (sfid-20120509_044655_421555_68F60494) MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Sender: linux-wireless-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: You may have noticed that Linus has released 3.4-rc6, and "we're getting close to final 3.4". So, the merge window is around the corner! For those that need a reminder, the opening of the merge window is a _deadline_ for new features. Once the merge window opens, only fixes will be accepted for 3.5. In fact, any non-fix patches need to already be in wireless-next when the merge window opens if you want them in 3.5. That means you need to get them posted _now_, so they can be reviewed and I can find time to merge them before the deadline. You have been warned...this means you! John P.S. A combination of personal and business commitments and the recent kerfuffle regarding bluetooth patches have conspired against my normal merging duties and habits. I will do what I can to get back on track, but if Linus does not release an -rc7 then there is a very good chance that anything not already merged in wireless-next will not make it for the 3.5 merge window. I apologize for the inconvenience, but please do plan accordingly. -- John W. Linville Someday the world will need a hero, and you linville@tuxdriver.com might be all we have. Be ready.
