Hm, interesting improvement in your "Release early, release often" strategy.
Yea, we were waiting for the previous series to get applied. Not
sure how to make this work better. Any process suggestions would be
appreciated.
Maintain your own git tree. Post patches in bunches. If no one
comments on them within 3 days then probably you can assume they
are going to be merged. In the [0 / X] patch say something like:
Fixes blah blah blah.
Applies to linux-next with the following patch sets applied:
Message-ID:<1309391303-22741-1-git-send-email-frankyl@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Message-ID:<8888888888-88888-1-git-send-email-frankyl@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Or you can get the patches from git://whatever branch.

So there are two suggestions here:
1. post patches in smaller bunches, and include dependency info in the
0/X patch. Presumably, if one of the dependencies is dropped, then
people will know to drop this series as well, and we would have to
repost everything that was dropped once we fix the identified issues.
2. maintain a public git tree that people can pull from. If we do (1),
is this needed and/or still useful? Do community folks that want to
contribute changes send them to us or Greg/John/whoever is upstream?
Pros/cons? Anybody have tips on workflow (my git mastery is still quite
weak)?
Thanks,
