Without these patches, people have to look in multiple places to determine where best to send patches and get_maintainers.pl produces poorer results. The centralization is good, the redundancy is low, and I like it when tools produce good results. It seems you produce fewer satisfaction endorphins from that than I. ;) > If you are going to be responsible for keeping these up to date, > especially when the drivers go away or move, then fine, make these > changes. Yup, I do that and will likely continue to do so. I occasionally run scripts that sieve MAINTAINERS file patterns against the current tree and highlight what's renamed or removed. Then I post patches. > But if not, then don't accept them, as I'm not going to. Who are you writing that to? Me? Linus doesn't pull from me. Anyway no worries Greg. Life's good. Hope your enjoyment endorphin receptors are always active... _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
