Actually, it wasn't David who was going to do it - that's where the email thread gets messy because the mailer David was using makes no distinction in text format between what bits of text make up the original email being replied to, and which bits of text are written by David. It might have been Felipe; there appears to be an email from Felipe saying that as the immediate parent to David's email. But that's not really the point here. The point is that _someone_ agreed to put the work in, and _that_ agreement is what caused the patch to be discarded. And, as I've already explained, you brought up the subject of it being discarded shortly after, and it got discussed there _again_, and the same things were said _again_ by at least two people about it being in drivers/dma. But anyway, that's all past history. What was said back then about it being elsewhere in the tree is just as relevant today as it was back then. The only difference is that because that message wasn't received, it's now two years later with no progress on that. And that's got *nothing* what so ever to do with me. I know people like to blame me just because I'm apparantly the focus of the blame culture, but really this is getting beyond a joke. So, I want an apology from you for your insistance that I'm to blame for this. Moreover, _I_ want to know what is going to happen in the future with this so that I don't end up being blamed anymore for the lack of progress on this issue. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
