Ah yes, thanks for pointing that out. But please, don't cc your proposed patches straight to [email protected]. I usually leave it up to the maintainer that merges the patch to add the Cc: line to the commit log. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
