Message-Id: <20080804183653.235052C400A@tippex.mynet.homeunix.org> Date: Mon, 04 Aug 2008 20:36:53 +0200 From: Anders Eriksson <aeriksson@...tmail.fm> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: lirc drivers out of tree forever? Being a lirc user and trying to follow kernel stable releases, I asked the lirc folks about their plans for eventual intrgration of the kernel releated parts into the kernel tree. http://www.nabble.com/kernel-integration-plans--td17171980.html The tail end of that thread suggests that there is an active drive to push drivers _out_ of the kernel. Is that really the case, and is it the desired way forward? IMHO, anything that calls itself a driver for a piece of hw should be in the kernel. /Anders -- 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/
