It also depends on how many hops you are to the maintainer and how heavy their workload is. Sometimes you can directly submit to them, other times your patches will be passed through three trees before they see mainline. It all depends on what you're working on and who's in your "circle". -- Peace and Blessings, -Scott. _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
