What needs to be done in order to get the sn9c20x code into the mainline? Am i right in assuming it would be preferred to move the code into a sn9c20x gspca subdriver rather then include the complete out of tree driver? If this is the case I can work on a set of patches to implement our code as a gspca subdriver. Also i have a few questions regarding submitting the patches. 1) In addition to sending them to linux-media should I CC them to anyone in particular? 2) The entire patch would likely be about 70k. Should I just send one patch or split the thing up into several?
