I haven't merged your tree but I merged Jiri's patches as is. (git am) I completely oversaw your pull request and issued mine. Mauro in IRC told me that you issued a PULL request as well. Not being aware that you have made any modifications Mauro suggest to pull from me and add an Ack-By to the patches. So he did not remove anything but trusted me too much. -- Patrick Boettcher Kernel Labs Inc. http://www.kernellabs.com/ -- 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
