This way you get patches committed much more smoother. So do not wait until _all_ patches are ready, instead start submitting patches as soon as you have _some_ patches ready. In other words, keep the delta between mainline and your not-yet-submitted patches as small as possible. And the patches don't need to be bug free as you can always fix bugs later. Just mention in the commit logs that this is preparation for some new feature and not fully tested yet. We do that all the time, for example Intel's iwlwifi has support for hardware which have not reached customers yet. > On the way, I'll attend netdev workshop in Korea, so we can meet there > if you attend too. I'm also attending Netdev 2.2, looking forward to meeting you there. -- Kalle Valo -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kernel-janitors" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
