There are some DP patches dribbling in every day or so and it's really
hard to follow along. I asked Kuogee to resend all outstanding patches
as a single series but that hasn't happened. I'm not super interested in
reviewing/testing out these patches until the outstanding patches for DP
on the list are reviewed and landed. Have you looked at those patches?
See [1] for an example.
