OK so given the state it's in, and assuming you think it is helpful to let it mature in tree and not out of tree, I think it's reasonable to try to do it like tcm_vhost is going to do it: - send me changes to vhost core ASAP (and keep it minimal, e.g. use your own header file to export to userspace) - for other stuff - put in drivers/staging, and ask Greg to merge -- MST -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
