The (outdated) docs are not intended to suggest exclusivity. Reviewers would consider patches for any other OS on merits of the patch itself. In the case of AIX, most people don't have access to such a system, so we'd be relying on the submitter to have done all neccessary testing, and also to periodically test that later patches to netcf don't accidentally cause regressions. IOW, by all means submit patches for AIX support, or any other OS Regards, Daniel -- |: http://berrange.com -o- http://www.flickr.com/photos/dberrange/ :| |: http://libvirt.org -o- http://virt-manager.org :| |: http://entangle-photo.org -o- http://search.cpan.org/~danberr/ :| _______________________________________________ netcf-devel mailing list -- netcf-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org To unsubscribe send an email to netcf-devel-le...@lists.fedorahosted.org
