Inspite of that if you feel that you do have to go your own way, then it is completely upto you. I would say: do as you feel in such a case. In such a case are you willing to fix all the issues/requests that surface ? Really do you want me to explain those issues in this thread ? I would say, think over it yourself, why that huge gap occurred. Take some time off all this, think on a cool mind. > > commit bbdd11fa957913d6648cabbca59be1da479180ed > Author: Manu Abraham <abraham.manu@xxxxxxxxx> > Date: Tue Aug 8 15:48:08 2006 -0300 > > V4L/DVB (4432): Fix Circular dependencies > > Signed-off-by: Manu Abraham <manu@xxxxxxxxxxx> > Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > It would be a pleasure to have you contributing again.

So eventually there are around 80 different cards at least. So, in fact there are a large number of cards that do exist rather than the one card that i have sent you, some time back. The non dst cards supported by dvb-bt8xx are just 3 or 4 cards, IIRC. > 4) I'm responsible for reviewing and forwarding patches for /drivers/media stuff; > > I think there's no reason for me to not forward the proper fixes to mainstream. > >From what i know, you do need an ACK from the relevant maintainer too. Did the concept of dvb-maintainers change without any of the DVB developers knowing ? _______________________________________________ linux-dvb mailing list linux-dvb@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/linux-dvb
