I think Keith has put it the best, most of my concerns about this work are that it is maybe before its time :-) Why I'm against it on the trunk: 1. Probably not acceptable as is into the Linux kernel or BSD, which raises the question as to why it would go into the main drm trunk at this time. 2. once Linus merges (I'm aiming for 2.6.7) there'll be some patches pushing back the other direction and I'd like to at that stage tag the 2.6 DRM, and I don't want to have stuff in the way ... (I'm self-appointed DRM maintainer at the moment and I'm blocking all patches that don't help towards the Linux merge from going into the DRM trunk, branches are not my domain..) Your work is trailblazing work, and at the moment it belongs in a branch, and also maybe upload all your patches to a public_html on fd.o so we can all take a look, the major issue with trailblazing is no-one else is with you to nitpick and input ideas and when you do release, everyone nitpicks and inputs ideas :-) Dave. -- David Airlie, Software Engineer http://www.skynet.ie/~airlied / airlied at skynet.ie pam_smb / Linux DECstation / Linux VAX / ILUG person ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
