This is, not surprisingly, incorrect. I'm mildly curious to know how
you arrived at this opinion, but only mildly. I'm sure the list
cares even less.
Alan can be seen as a concentrator/reviewer for the 2.2.x line.
He actually authors a small percentage of the code that passes through
him to Linus.
fwiw.

And this is even more amusing, showing that you haven't really been
paying much attention recently :)
