No, thank _you_. > As for step 2: do you have a good sense on the timing? Around how long > should I wait to submit the patch for it? Not so fast. We'll wait for others to comment first. I am queuing this change but that does not mean anything more than that I am not outright rejecting the idea. It is possible that others may assess the cost of having to do the two-step migration differently, and the list concensus may end up being "if it hurts, don't pass an empty string", i.e. we'd better without this patch or subsequent second step. If that happens, the first step dies without hitting 'next'. I'd say we'd wait at least for a week. Otherwise, if the change is received favourably, we'll merge it to 'next', do the same waiting for comments. Repeat the same and then merge to 'master'. After it hits the next feature release (probably at around the end of August), the change will be seen by wider general public, and at that point we may see strong opposition from them with a good argument neither of us thought of why we shouldn't do this change, in which case we might have to revise the plan and scrap the whole thing. So, we'll wait and see. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
