Hi,
This is not a complaint or bug report. :)
I've been following the recent ext4 activity (purely as an interested user
already running ext4 everywhere) and am somewhat concerned that Chris
Wright's recent announcement of 2.6.29.1 does not seem to contain any ext4
related fixes, like the "brown paper bag" lock typo or others. Is this
just an oversight? I've had no problems with ext4 so far (knock on wood)
but reading about some of the bugs here I'd rather have fixes sooner than
later..release consistency, peace of mind and all that. Is this not how
the stable release process is meant to work?
Thanks for all your hard work.
Holger

I was delayed in getting the ext4 fixes for 2.6.30 pushed to Linus,
and they have to be accepted in mainline before I can push them to
stable. Sorry, things have been crazy busy for me this past week.
