| |
Dear vger postmaster,
I think its time for a linux-firmware mailing list. If one is possible on vger that'd be great, otherwise let me know and I can look for an alternative outlet.
I've been giving linux-firmware some good love as of late. One of the issues I have seen with old commits had been lack of eyeball reviews, and and also ensuring the "right people" do review and get CC'd. While I do tend to CC everyone and their mom, its easy for me to know who should be as I'm maintaining the code now -- but I see some folks fail to capture everyone I know should be reviewing things or might like to get Cc'd on such topics. Tools like checkpatch help but its not perfect and now everyone use it. Instead of CC'ing everyone I know should be Cc'd on linux-firmware stuff I think its time for a proper mailing list for it.
This should also help with reviewing old patches and letting new folks engage more easily by looking at specific dedicate archive of what's going on.
Let me know and thanks in advance!
Luis
