OK, I'll try to accelerate the effort to send these to you. We'll still need some kind of bucket for the patches that don't apply to recent kernels, but which no one has yet had time to bring up-to-date (or evaluate for permanent dismissal). And dribbling them out, fixing them up, responding to issues - all take time that I can't commit to personally for the next week or so. I'll let Michael respond whether he can get to this sooner rather than later, as planned. ============================= Tim Bird Architecture Group Chair, CE Linux Forum Senior Staff Engineer, Sony Corporation of America =============================
