Isn't that a double edged sword? I mean, since PowerPC is SO inactive that like nobody will respond, and it'll be limbo limbo limbo, just to merge say 24 removals and a maintainers patch, especially the maintainers patch, that has nothing to do with the removals and that'll get all stuck up with the removals I think unless you have other plans, which is annoyance, because it is "oh so inactive" And I also made a additional maintainers patch that IDK where it will go!! Either to my custodian tree (p,s: maintainers patch isn't merged yet!!) Or to another tree, yeah, odd, hm? (Sorry, I had a small vent, :c) Hm, I will probably submit the maintainers patch separately, since that should have very minimal to no conflict, idk what to do here, tom, any advice? > > --- Thanks! https://lore.kernel.org/all/[email protected]/
