Subject: Re: [PATCH] Add CONFIG_VFAT_NO_CREATE_WITH_LONGNAMES option
Date: Sat, 2 May 2009 19:30:02 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <18940.4762.726933.677059@samba.org> (raw)

Hi Christoph,
> At that point you shouldn't even bother to send a patch.
The non-technical reasons for this patch are available to anyone who
cares to read any of the many news sites that discuss recent
events. The fact that I can't discuss those reasons shouldn't preclude
me from proposing a technical solution which tries to minimise the
impact on Linux users.
I'm hoping that you and others will look at the proposed technical
solution to the non-technical problem, and perhaps suggest better
approaches. There are a wide variety of approaches to avoiding this
problem, and we need to work out which, if any, should be part of the
kernel.org releases.
Cheers, Tridge
