Hi all,
Just joined the mailing list.
I was going through the TODO list (
http://kernelnewbies.org/KernelJanitors/Todo )
For which branch fixes should be sent ? 3.26 ?? or 3.3-rc3 ?? or something
else ?
regards
santosh

Patches should always be done against linux-next.

Use the ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl script. Mostly we don't CC lkml
unless there is no other devel list for the driver.
You may want to CC the first patch to kernel janitor list.
Everyone's first patch is always rejected and the kernel janitor
list is newbie friendly place to find out what you did wrong. ;)
Btw. Always CC the list. I've added it back since there was
nothing private in this email.
