For me it's only the "we don't want it upstream" mentality. I think every module should be in the kernel (see also http://www.kroah.com/log/linux/ols_2006_keynote.html ) and kmod in Extras are an interim solution to fill the timeframe until they get upstream (and in an ideal world people would get their drivers merged into the kernel as soon as they basically work) . > but > the fact is that zaptel is GPL, so is this really the right place to draw the > proverbial line in the sand? Well, one kernel-developer is hightly respect thinks the line should be drawn even earlier -- see Bug 189400 comment 9 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
