Is there a right or wrong time to post such patches to this list? How does the kernel merge window effect what kind of patches are expected here on the OMAP list? What should I use as the base for my patches? At http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tmlind/linux-omap-2.6.git, at the moment 'master' hasn't been updated for 4 weeks. Should I base it on v3.1-rc1 instead (as an example, since I won't manage to submit it while v3.1-rc1 is the most recent tag)? thanks, Michael MATRIX VISION GmbH, Talstrasse 16, DE-71570 Oppenweiler Registergericht: Amtsgericht Stuttgart, HRB 271090 Geschaeftsfuehrer: Gerhard Thullner, Werner Armingeon, Uwe Furtner, Erhard Meier
