We're talking a one of situation and I'm very aware of all the Fedora kernel history for years. The scenario I mention above is only suggested because 1) the timing of both is very close 2) 4.4 is due to be a LTS kernel and it's likely as a result a lot are ignoring 4.3 altogether 3) a large chunk of QA work to then suddenly have to rebase again in a short period of time. It was a query to Josh, nothing more. _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/[email protected]
