If you have a functional :> issue with the patch I'm all ears. If you disagree with my assessment of :> the triviality of the linux scripting patch, then I will ask for a :> second opinion from someone who is not quite so jaded in regards to my :> commits... say Jordan or DG. : : I'm sure you're right that the impact is minor. I'm a little uncomfortable :with immediate MFC's, even though I've been guilty of doing that myself at :times in the past. Can we perhaps compromise and allow for a one day delay? :At least that would catch glaring mistakes like mis-applied patches that :happen sometimes even with highly skilled developers who have only the best :intentions. : :-DG : :David Greenman Sure, no problem. I'll tell you what, I'll commit the linux scripting patch to 5.x on wednesday as originally planned, but since the SMP MFC is being moved to friday (at the very least) I will not MFC the scripting patch to 4.x until friday. ( That is, what I really want to do is to do the SMP MFC and the scripting MFC at the same time so people only have to recompile their kernel modules once. It happens to work out well ). -Matt Matthew Dillon To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
