Good day,

The TODO document has the addresses of where to send a patch, but if
you run get_maintainer.pl it gives me a different person to address
it, gregkh for example.

I have sent a patch to the persons on the TODO list, should I still
copy to the maintainer in charge too? CC maybe?

Another question, apart from the /drivers/staging and bugtracker, is
there some where else to look for bug info? The mailing list? I just
want to get the complete picture.

Last question, I understand that if there is a bug, most of the time
they tell you to try to reproduce it on the latest kernel. If it
doesn't occur then everything is good and I should look for another
one. But who is in charge of porting a bug fix like these to old
kernels? How can I help? Or I, as a newbie,  should focus more on the
/drivers/staging and bugtracker?

I want to thank in advance for your time and please let me know if I
can read about all this in some website.
