I'm doing some archaeological research, digging deep inside prehistoric PreemptRT and trying to figure out what we can learn from history. RT is a pretty huge patch stack which has been around for a couple of years. I'm trying to find answers to questions like: - how did RT evolve over the years? - which kind of patches went upstream? - how long did a patch live in the RT stack before it went upstream? - which kind of patches tend to stay in the patch stack and will probably not go upstream? Therefore I'm happy for anything old that's still available out there. Anything helps. I will keep you informed.
