IMO you are both right and wrong in your own ways. I agree with Neil that you* have to go to the people who are concerned. I agree with you that LKML will often not be the place where you* find them. (Still, you* have to find them; it's not that they have to find your wiki discussion.) *) "you" = whoever has the drive and persistence, and is connected enough with the communities to help in feature removal processes -- Stefan Richter -=====-=-=== -=-= ---=- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
