Folks who have it already merged will be fine unless they --depclean without first checking what it'll do, and those that don't have it merged can merge it if they need it -- it's not as if it's leaving the tree, and the kernel doesn't hard-depend on it. A GWN or similar announcement before it moves beyond the dev profiles would be nice, but if the affected devs (incl. bugwranglers) are willing to deal with the complaints and they seem to be, the leaner system and image is IMO a good thing, and announcement or not, people really /should/ be checking their depcleans. =8^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
