If you want them, could you perhaps start by ACK'ing the first 5 patches to help me get them merged? Once I see the first 5 merged I'll start creating more, but I don't want to waste time doing so before that. >I already wrote an automatic checker to tell me > how they differ from reality, which is half the battle.

That would make my life easier if I'm to help you with this. -- Jesper Juhl <jesper.juhl@...il.com> Don't top-post http://www.catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/top-post.html Plain text mails only, please http://www.expita.com/nomime.html - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
