Some time ago i suggested: > > drivers/staging/good/ > drivers/staging/bad/ > drivers/staging/ugly/ How well do "git am", "quilt import" and friends cope with ever changing directories? How about using drivers/staging/this_driver/TODO and (or) its Kconfig help text to leave a note about the plans for this driver? The worry that these will be ignored like Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt is being ignored may apply to the path name based solution too, I'm afraid.

These announcements are actually picked up by the specialized press.) -- Stefan Richter -=====-==--= =-=- -===- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
