Yep. There is a lot of chaos and keeping on top of it all is a pain,
and nobody has it easy.
Andrew probably wins award for the biggest challenge.
My todo list pales in comparison. I only have 80+ patches in my
queue that I need to reviewed and then pushed upstream. 50 sysfs
patches to review and get a handle on so hopefully we can out of the
sysfs quagmire.
Plus I don't know how many little gotchas that need to be fixed with
a new patch of their own.
It's coming together but it takes time.
David, Andrew thanks you both are really are good upstream maintainers
to work with.
Eric
