Sparse is the kind of project that needs careful curation, and personally, I think it's quite reasonable and important to be cautious about direction and patch acceptance. I'd be concerned about changing that, personally. That said, I do think the ambiguity between the master branch and development branches is a bit problematic, and it would help if the master branch stayed more up to date with current development. That would probably help address such concerns. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sparse" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
