Subject: Re: [PATCH v6 2/2] leds: as3668: Driver for the ams Osram 4-channel
i2c LED driver
Hi,
okay thanks, I will wait a week or two until sending the next patch.
I've never worked with this email-based workflow before. That's the
reason I've chosen this simple driver as a first patch in the first
place. Just to get a little bit of experience under my belt. I know I'm
making a few very obvious mistakes. I'm getting a bit overwhelmed by all
the things to remember, I guess.
Apologies for the noise.
Best regards,
Lukas Timmermann
