It is large and complex, and I understand that you are not willing to spend the time to review the overall code in future iterations. Before me spending more time on SMC, I need a hint about *your* preferred way to submit that large piece of code in general, and about the overall future of SMC: - Supposed the SMC code is improved to an acceptable quality and maybe even gets additional reviewers, are you willing to accept the code at all, given it is self-contained (our own can of worms, as you said)? - I realized that I have to split up the large chunk of code into smaller patches. Do you prefer going with a first minimal self contained patch set first, providing basic communication capabilities, and then incrementally add features like failover, setsockopt, urgent-data etc. over time? Or, on submissions, do you always want to see a patch series of the full set of features and values according to the SMC design?
