If you mean this list (lvs-devel), I am already subscribed (so no need to CC me usually, as I will look through all mails). I will also subscribe to linux-netdev, but since the traffic there is higher, I won't read through all of it ;) Regards, Julius -- Google Switzerland GmbH -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe lvs-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
