Thanks Sebastien for the 5th round of RT Linux Test Cases Cleanup(s)/Enhancement(s). I would prefer these patches merged in March 2008, and subsequently will be released during March 2008 LTP release, as, we have our release tomorrow for Feb 2008.
Meanwhile, you will see more discussion(s) on these set of Patches from Dino/Chirag/Darren, before it is finally acked and merged into LTP. Thanks once again for these Patches.
