We have quite a lot of code that wasn't accepted by Marcello in the
past. For example the lcs driver, the zfcp, the crypto driver and
other quite important stuff - important for zSeries. The reasons are
sketchy at best. The lcs driver is probably considered to ugly, the
zfcp driver to big, etc. The last big chunk that got integrated went
in over Alan Cox. The patches I sent to Marcello are ignored most
of the time. All I can do is to resent them.
