Because I figured it would be easier to review and test applying one patch, instead of the 4-5 that it takes otherwise. The single patch was produced directly from a diff against trunk; no "new" code is included. > if the changes that were skipped were not good for 3.1, then they are not good > for trunk either and that could be fixed with further patches in trunk than > then could be added to the list of patches from 3.1 for backport. Nothing was skipped. In fact, given that "new stuff" goes into trunk *before* it goes into 3.1, I don't really see how it could have been skipped. As I said, there's no "new" code here. -- Jesse Becker GPG Fingerprint -- BD00 7AA4 4483 AFCC 82D0 2720 0083 0931 9A2B 06A2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Ganglia-developers mailing list Ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-developers
