SubjectRe: [PATCH] trivial fix for 2.6.11 raid6 compilation on ppc w/ Altivec

My suggestion would be one of two alternatives:

1) At each release, Linus clones
linux.bkbits.net/linux-2.6
to
linux.bkbits.net/linux-2.6.11

and gives the "release team" access to push to linux-2.6.11 repo.


2) Create linux-release.bkbits.net, and some non-Linus person clones
linux-2.6 at release time to linux-2.6.11.


This accomplishes two [minor] goals:
a) the tree lives at bkbits.net, as has a name associated with the goal
of the project

b) The repo has the _exact_ name of the kernel release. None of this
"linux-2.6.11.y" stuff. Just "linux-2.6.11". Anything else violates
the Principle of Least Surprise.

I was wondering if it would be possible to setup a list on vger that is
public, but read-only to everyone but the $sucker team.
