The .c files need a little license-mentioning header at the least, and should in principle also use tab indents like LKCS.-See files from Xt-a for examples. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
