I know things are still very busy on your side with /drivers/scsi/ code, but wanted to ensure that iscsi-target is still included for this short merge window considering the extensive amount of linux-scsi review, code conversion + cleanups, and testing it has undergone in the last 6 months since the mainline drivers/target/ merge. Please let me know if you need anything else to get this merged scsi-misc, or if it makes more sense given the time pressures to ask Linus (CC'ed) to merge this directly with appropriate Signed-off-bys from Christoph, Mike, Tomo-san, Dr. Hannes, Boaz and yourself.. I am happy either way, but just want to avoid having this slip (again) given the large amount of efforts involved and mass market applicability of this particular target fabric code. --nab -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-next" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
