Subject: [RFC: patch] move acknowledgment for Mark Adler to CREDITS
Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2006 00:51:18 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060418225118.GA11582@stusta.de> (raw)
The place in the documentation of the Linux kernel to acknowledge
contributions is the CREDITS file.
Give Mark Adler an entry there instead of including a string in the
kernel image.
