I don't think we should do a sensors release just because of w83l785ts. We also shouldn't be forcing people to upgrade i2c releases. The last couple of new sensors drivers have not had #ifndef I2C_DRIVERID_xxx in the new drivers, which forces people to upgrade i2c for very little reason. IMO we should always #ifndef the driverids in new drivers. Jean Delvare wrote: > Hi all, > > Linux 2.6.3 is out.
