A leading capital would be appreciated for consistency. Speaking of i2ctransfer, would you agree to remove it from the i2c-tools-3.1 branch? As I recall, the only reason why it was added there in the first place is because the release of i2c-tools 4.0 was late, but this has happened meanwhile. I don't think it makes sense to add a new tool to branch in maintenance state which is supposed to receive only bug fixes. As a packager, I would not expect to have to change anything to my packaging if I follow such a branch. -- Jean Delvare SUSE L3 Support
