So I'd really love to know who was so ead set aginst them. I personally don't really care if there is a real team (active/active) or just a standby (active/passive), but I think we really need a coherent tree of pending patches to avoid last minute rebases due to conflicts, as well as some feedback for submitters. I'd be happy to volunteer to collect all patches that were properly review into a queue for you to consider to at least sort out these mechanics, although I'd be even more happy if someone who has a longer experience with the subsystem would volunteer instead. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
