If I only e-mail private people I would have missed Dan Carpenter who sent these patches out. > It's not like we don't do this kind of things all the time, and have > been for years, it just takes a willingness for the people involved to > work together. ÂHopefully that is the case here. The will is there, but: 1) Vipin told me he was going on vacation Friday, and yet he's ACKing patches now 2) Who is the new maintainer for ath6kl ? I'm still waiting for the respective patches from Vipin so I guess I'll do that now Luis _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
