There is this notion called theory of mind, which children learn at a very young age, that helps us see the world through the eyes of other people. If you think people *must* see the word "release" and think *exactly* the same thing as you do, and apologize when they don't, well, I'd say you are missing a very valuable skill. But fine, lets suppose I should have thought exactly the same thing as you did, and fine, lets say I was wrong in not doing so. That still doesn't help one iota in this discussion. Linus Torvalds pointed the exact reason, which allowed us to move forward, because of my incompetence, or whatever. The next logical question has still not been answered; does the undroppability come from the fact that v3.4 is more important that v3.3.1? This time I promise to think at least one day for all the possible meanings of each key word you say. -- Felipe Contreras -- 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
