um, I'd fix it up if I understood it, but I'm not sure that I do with sufficient reliability. If you want to send a message like this to Greg and to others who maintain earlier kernel versions then I suggest you just spell it all out in plain old English in the main changelog. That's not very useful information for people who are following mainline, but a couple paragraphs in a changelog won't kill anyone. So can you please send me those couple of paragraphs and I'll paste them in there headlined "-stable suggestions". -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe stable" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
