Alan,

I'm not sure what you're saying here.  Perhaps because I'm not intimately
familiar with the typical kernel development process.  (I only subscribe to
LKML for as short a period as I possible can, and only when I absolutely
have to!  :)

If you could elaborate on what the difference is between those two
scenarios, it would be helpful, because they sound like the same thing to
me.

Also, if I were to get involved with something like that, is there a bk
client for Linux/390?  (I'm willing to do something to help get these
blasted patches integrated.)

On the other hand, David Boyes is more than willing to give Marcelo an
account on Sine Nomine's z/VM system if Marcelo would be able (and willing)
to make use of it.  That would probably be the preferred situation for
everyone.

Probably but you also want someone who will also grab your fixed bk tree
and see if it works with the patches merged, which is different to
"these patches work with XYZ, we know we've tested"

Don't take the comment originally as anything against the IBM guys - its
not intended that way at all
