This patchset brought some new functionalities and was some post after the feature freeze. As already said (http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/announce/2014-June/000030.html), it should go now in master for 1.7.1 cycle. It would be good to have some reviews on these patches. > If patches are going to be ignored, why should bother sending them? They weren't ignored, but you seem to ignore the announce emails. Please keep cool and let's continue the good work. -- Thomas
