Sure, I get that, but I was already out on PTO on the 30th. What sucks is that it landed right after I was out. But I plan to have the pull request in before EOB today, so the difference between the 20th and today is neglible. Especially since lots of people doing QA testing prefer to take -rc tags, in that case, the difference is non-existent. -- Doug Ledford <dledford@xxxxxxxxxx> GPG KeyID: B826A3330E572FDD Key fingerprint = AE6B 1BDA 122B 23B4 265B 1274 B826 A333 0E57 2FDD -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-rdma" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
