Thanks for the time reviewing the code. The purpose of this mailing list is not to make friends, it's to develop good quality software. You might not like this "unfriendly" approach, but it is the style of many linux maintainers, and I believe for good reason. When you think the code is ugly, and you want the message to get across effectively you say it's ugly. This might hurt some people sensitivities but it's the truth, and sugar-coating will not make the code any less uglier. While there has been good progress in the bridgedriver, it is still *very* far away from meeting mainline standards and this makes many people uneasy, including me. Artem complains will need to be addressed one way or another. So, can we have at least have a TODO file with these complaints? -- Felipe Contreras -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
