But there are LTS kernels not maintained by Greg like 3.12 and 3.16. How
about these? If sending patches to stable@kernel org is optional then
it's better to kill that list or silently drop emails send to this list

They can pick it up the same way though, no? Actually I think they
usually pick it up from Greg's tree anyway :)
"Can" and "do" are different things. And you "think" you know what
others people do but do you really "know" it? Anyway your original
comment sounded a bit like "avoid sending it to the stable kernel
mailinglist otherwise unwanted things might happen". In the end this
raises the question why that stable kernel mailing still list exists or
why there is no general rule not to send mails to it.
So in the end that currently means that it is not wrong to send mail to
stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx but it is your opinion that it is just not really
necessary, right?
