So in light of Linus' stated position, it would be helpful for me
(and
maybe others on the list) to have a good feel for when you guys are
planning to push your merge-window changes to Linus before each
window

At the very least, since many of us do not follow LKML, would
someone
commit to reflecting the LKML merge announcements to linux-nfs?
Or is
there a kernel announcements list we can follow (or that we can
subscribe linux-nfs to)?
There are no announcements. The merge window starts as soon as
2.6.27 is
released, and lasts for 2 weeks. There has been some talk about
shortening it to 1 week, but that hasn't been fully decided yet.
IOW: Assume as soon as you see the 2.6.27 announcement, that we're
preparing the merge.
Yeah. Unfortunately I don't know of a simple way to get just the
release announcements. I guess lwn.net's rss feed would get them
with a
little less noise than lkml.
We should probably restart sending those "what's in my tree for 2.6.x"
messages with the tentative shortlog for the pull. I think I did it a
couple times and then got lazy....
The whole system makes it absolutely impossible to plan features and
bug fixes.
