At my point of view, LKCD is convinced that it is the most important technology
for us.

It seems to be LKCD is just working perfectly with our 2.4.17 kernel.
It reduces plenty of time for analysing Oops. Hence,for engineers like us, LKCD
is necessary.

I am really looking forward that LKCD will be merged into Kernel main-tree
in the near future. If it is possible that would probably be much better if
the user ability and time for analysing can be improved.

I really appreciate everybody's works in this super team-LKCD.

Thanks again,
-- GO!
