God sakes man, this is ridiculous! Look at other successful open source
projects - they don't work like that. If your patch works, that enough.

Oh yes, bringing a patch into the linux kernel is just simple compared
with FPC. Xen, ReiserFS4, Android patches etc. were applied within days.
Oh, wait .... they are still no in the vanilla kernel though it's so
easy as Graeme just explained.

Oh yes... I sent a small patch to the video4linux mailing list (which is part of the kernel) in April. In July I sent a corrected version (ok... that time difference was my problem) and yesterday it was finally queued for inclusion in 2.6.37.

But I wanted that patch in there, cause I wanted my device to work without manually patching around. So I waited and finally my wish was fulfilled :D
