(famous last > words) ;-) Yes, I very often have 2 or three topics active at the same time and I tend to let them 'soak' for a few days. I also tend to not rebase them without a very good reason. So, it often happens that a series I post is based on a later version that the current master. Most of the time the active series are independents and so their merges are absolutely trivial, but not always ... I'll try to use the option '--base' of git format-patch more systematically (U've begin to use it a bit lately) and return to my previous good habit of publishing the tree of every series (I suppose it's always faster than to take them from the emails of even from patchwork). Anyway, thank you vry much for the testing. It's pushed now to the main tree. -- Luc
