Or during the week of Plumber's Conference... or LSF/MM... or the during the Kernel Summit... or if they are in transit to Linux.conf.au.... sometimes a patch submitter won't get feedback right away. It's nothing personal. With all due respect to Steven, I think he over-reacted a little with his "maintainer abuse" reply. Most of the time people won't get "yelled" at if they send patches at the wrong time. And what's wrong for one maintainer will be right for another, and vice versa. - Ted -- 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
