Re: hwclock fork/merge

I don't have a patch history; hwclock has not been a big enough project
to warrant such code control process.  And I don't know any other practical
way to break down the difference between the two hwclocks into logical
patches.

And I'm really not inclined to re-implement stuff -- that would be
tedious for me.  Looking over the util-linux-ng mailing list, I see a
bunch of stuff I did once before, but not so that I could turn it into
a patch today.

So maybe there's nothing mergeable after all.  Or I'm just not the
right guy to do it.  I'm pretty aggressive about changing code, and I
can tell that's not the util-linux-ng temperament.


Do you think there's any way to ship a stable and advanced version,
where the advanced version might some day have enough exposure that
you'd consider it stable?  Even some of the things you're considering
adding are kind of fringy, and it would be better to have a place to
put those where they wouldn't bother people who won't use them.
