you have it backwards -- i deliberately chose a wiki to get this discussion *off* the LKML. given the traffic volume here, and given that kernel code removal isn't what most people consider a high priority, i'm guessing most folks here are monumentally uninterested in the discussion.
thus, a wiki gives the people who are still interested a place for all that info, while uncluttering the LKML. and if some discussion gets really heated, *then* the LKML can be used to resolve it.
as it is, i think this issue has been flogged adequately on this mailing list, and it can safely be moved elsewhere where people who care about it can still get to it.
