I just noticed that the branch you asked Linus to pull includes none of the patches that Alex sent you in the last batch, in the email with subject "[PULL 00/56] ppc patch queue 2012-03-15" sent on March 15, where he asked you to pull git://github.com/agraf/linux-2.6.git for-upstream. What happened? Did they get lost in the re-signing, or is there some reason you thought they shouldn't go in? Thanks, Paul.
