There did seem to be a few more complaints in this release cycle about patches/pulls just getting lost though - I had at least one that didn't make it in, though Peter has pulled to his -next branch, and I saw others saying theirs were missed too. Was there a problem with your mail filtering or tools? I've attached my lost pull request - I never saw any answer other than Peter's. http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-February/035330.html http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2013-February/035457.html -- -Alan Coopersmith- [email protected] Oracle Solaris Engineering - http://blogs.oracle.com/alanc
