Keeping user space compatibilty is of course a good idea, but I see no reason why V4L needs to be special compared to the rest of the kernel. I don't have the full picture though and I'm not the one who spend energy and time on keeping backwards compatibility. If the cost is small enough then it may of course be worth it. But my gut feeling is that there is no point in being special with these things, just do like the rest of the kernel subsystems and you will be fine. / magnus -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
