I would prefer to continue use https://bcache.evilpiepirate.org , but before posting patches for Kent to merge I can setup a for-next tree for people to rebase, review and test the patches, You may rebase your patch against for-next branch of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/colyli/bcache-tools.git/ And I will help to review, collect and test the patches during my development activities. For other patches if I run them for quite long time and everything is OK, I will post them to Kent. This procedure may reduce workload from Kent IMHO. How do you think of this idea ?
