But I'm not sure about that (Cc:ing John), my comment was more > about my ack. I think linux-wireless is sufficient, especially for small and/or isolated patches. But there is no real harm in including netdev, especially for patches with broader impact. For example, if Zhu Yi and PJ had chosen to push the multiqueue stuff on wireless first then it would certainly have been appropriate to copy netdev. I guess it is just a judgment call -- if your patch merits broader review, then copy netdev as well. Hth! (I doubt if it does!) John -- John W. Linville linville@tuxdriver.com
