I could review it and put it in there on a preliminary basis for some runtime testing. But the question in my mind is how different will the code be after the problems which rmk has identified have been fixed? If "not very different" then that effort and testing will have been worthwhile. If "very different" or "unworkable" then it was all for naught. So. Do we have a feeling for the magnitude of the changes which will be needed to fix these things up? -- 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
