Subject: YAFFS in the kernel tree?
Date: Thu, 29 May 2008 08:59:54 +1200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200805290859.54396.manningc2@actrix.gen.nz> (raw)

Hi

I'm the author of YAFFS. This is not in the kernel tree, but is fairly easy to 
integrate by just pulling a tarball and running  patch-in script. 

I am curious as to whether people consider the current mechanism "good enough" 
or whether it is worth the effort trying to get YAFFS into the kernel tree.

Pros I can see:
* In tree means better testing (maybe).
* Keeping current with kernel API changes.

Cons:
* More effort for YAFFS maintainers (me mostly).
* Effort getting code into kernel coding style (unless I can get a waiver on 
this).

Thoughts??
