Also I feel like there should be a tag for bugfixes to a patch like: Fixes-from: Michael Zoran <mzoran@xxxxxxxxxxxx> A good deal of my work gets folded into the original patches and I don't get any sort of credit that you can measure for it. I've lobbied for the Fixes-from: tag for a while... It would only cover bug fixes not bike shedding or style issues. regards, dan carpenter _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
