Because if problems crop up (and they > will), I don't want to have to be the bunny who has to worry about them... umm, clarification needed here. No criticism of the present maintainers intended! Last time I grabbed the kgdb patches from sf.net they applied nicely, worked quite reliably (much better than the old ones I'd been trying to sustain) and had been tremendously cleaned up. But if we're to move this work from sf.net to kernel.org, the kgdb maintainers' workload, email load, turnaround time requirements, bug-difficulty and everything else will go up quite a lot, at least short-term. If they don't want to volunteer take that on (perfectly legit and sane) then things should stay as they are. (otoh, a merge would decrease their patch-maintenance load, and would increase the number of people who fix things for them, and might attract new maintainers). It's a big step. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
