Yes, post to this list for embedded-specific patches (8xx). If it's a clear fix, somebody will put it into linux-2.5 and it will be pulled into linuxppc-2.5 on the next merge. Put [PATCH] in the subject and mention what BK tree it's made against. Let me say this again, but a bit clearer so that _everybody_ understands. A patch is the standard unit of communication here. If you don't post a patch that represents your ideas or proposed fixes, your thoughts are likely to get lost in all the noise on these lists. -Matt ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
