I don't think either of those are your > real name ;) Sorry. The former is what I've used as a handle for um, eight years or so now, but the latter is what it says on my passport. Really. =20 The first hundred links (of over 30K) that googling my name link back to me; I stopped counting after that. These links go back as far as '98 and include contributions I've made to half a dozen FOSS projects, my Advodato user page (with its trust metrics), DaveM telling me off a couple of times on lkml, my employer (AbsoluteValue Systems of linux-wlan[-ng] "fame"), and my alma matter (Georgia Tech).=20 If you finger me I even have full contact information published, complete with the phone number of my employer (although Google will provide that too). I realize that none of this technically establishes *my* identity, but I think the only mutual aquaintance I've met in person is Jean Torrilhes,=20 and he didn't check my ID either. :) So. Probably the most expedient manner of establishing I am who google and I say I am is by calling my employer at +1(321)259-0737, ask my boss (Mark Mathews) about my credentials, then you can then put me on the line to establish I know about this conversation. Or I/we can call you. I could fax you a copy of my ID or something, but that would only tell=20 you that I may have l33t photoshop skillz... :) I'm also not in the=20 local phone book (I ditched the land line two years ago) so you can't go=20 that route. (Gee, remote identity verification is a difficult problem, isn't it? :) > If you can sort that out then please ensure that future patches are > prepared in `patch -p1' form, as per I did it the way I did to avoid diffing two complete kernel trees (the=20 editor was running on a much slower machine than the test boxes.. the=20 extensive reboot-required nature of fbdev development is not condusive=20 to editor state) The current version of the patch (v6a) is linked to kernel bugzilla #6215, but it doesn't have the "correct" format either, but that's a=20 trivial thing to fix. Is there anything else you'd like me to do to this patch before you take it into -mm? I can break it down a little bit, but unfortunately the bulk of it is fairly atomic (no pun intended) and nearly all of the changes would need to be applied at once, broken down or not. I also don't know if this patch will apply to (or work on) 2.6.19-rc,=20 but that should be a straightforward merge. I'm assuming you'd like me=20 to sort that out too. Cheers, - Solomon (really) --=20 Solomon Peachy pizza at shaftnet dot org =20 Melbourne, FL ^^ (mail/jabber/gtalk) ^^ Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
