This is not how it works. Patches are posted at the ML and developers can review and comment about them. Does those patches break something? If not, please stop flaming. With regards to Cc the driver maintainer (mkrufky), the patch also got forwarded to him, in priv (it were supposed to be sent via git send-email, but, as it wasn't, the patch was manually forwarded for him to review, just after the patchbomb). In any case, my intention is to wait for a couple days before merging the patches I posted today, as the dvb-usb-v2 is too new, and it is good to hear some comments about it.
