It's a huge work, but what is more important, it could obviously hurt stability... So, I'd suggest to follow this policy to choose the work to merge: - reduce *a lot* what is going to be merged... no new features, no code cleanups (especially NOT the Makefiles cleanups)... - concentrate on stability... and on backing out the hostfs rewrite. -- Paolo Giarrusso, aka Blaisorblade Linux registered user n. 292729 http://www.user-mode-linux.org/~blaisorblade ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IntelliVIEW -- Interactive Reporting Tool for open source databases.
