For bug fixes (like the interface number thing), that will have no problem being accepted right now. For major overhauls, with the only reason being to simplify the code, that should probably wait until 2.7. For things inbetween, I don't know. Some if it could go into the 2.6 tree, if it fixes problems, and makes life easier for people. It would have to be on a case-by-case basis. But don't let any of this stop you from doing big stuff if you want to. Big things should probably live out of the tree for a while anyway, with people beating on them, shaking out the kinks. Does that help any? thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email sponsored by: Enterprise Linux Forum Conference & Expo The Event For Linux Datacenter Solutions & Strategies in The Enterprise Linux in the Boardroom; in the Front Office; & in the Server Room http://www.enterpriselinuxforum.com _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, use the last form field at: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/linux-usb-devel
