(Blame it on the NHL stanley cup playoffs) :) I have created a git tree on kernel.org with all the work that I have completed so far (see below). This first stage of the move is only taking care of the drivers. The next stage will move the networking core drivers (bridging, bonding, vlan, etc.) into drivers/net/sw. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/next-organize I will send out all the patches as an RFC by the end of the week (for sure). -- Cheers, Jeff
