Thanks, I assume that this was formally enough and you are taking the patches. So, for future reference: Stable patches for the networking tree, I should: 1) check http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/bundle/davem/stable/?state=* to see if my patch is already on your stable queue 2) if not, ask you and cc netdev@vger.kernel.org 3) you will handle the interaction with Greg and stable@vger.kernel.org Correct? > Asking Greg to do it directly is a complete waste of time. :-) I'll remember that. I was just following Documentation/stable_kernel_rules.txt, I guess I should have known better as all my previous stable patches have automagically been picked up and processed by you :-) -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Sr. Network Kernel Developer at Red Hat Author of http://www.iptv-analyzer.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer
