Yes, I think I'm noticing an uptick in patches as soon as a kernel is released. It's a bit irritating, and is unexpected (here, at least). I guess people like to hold onto their work for as long as possible so when they release it, it's in the best possible shape. I guess all we can do is to encourage people to merge up when it's working, not when it's time to merge it into mainline. One could just say "if I don't have it by the time 2.6.n is released, it goes into 2.6.n+2", but that's probably getting outside the realm of practicality. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
