Was there a problem? FWIW, I have a second patch that also doesn't seem to have made it to the trivial git yet... but unlike the patch above, the second one is only a few weeks old and may just be sitting in the old inbox (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/554613).

Ok, I didn't know it would be acceptable without an ack from someone... (is Randy on vacation? :) I know we've discussed the logic behind trivial merges going in prior to RC candidates, and generally I think it's sound enough (we don't want to disrupt the merging of patches that actually "matter," etc). I don't want to create a redundant conversation here, but I'm compelled to ask for opinions on this... I think the Kconfigs are a fairly prominent kernel feature, and would expect a lot of systems people will be seeing them when the new version goes final. That also means that a lot more people will be seeing the "trivial" errors in spelling or grammar that are being left in until the next version. In this round, for example, the new blackfin entries were really in need of some love. I don't really know how many people will report such things, or submit duplicate patches for them before we actually get to the next kernel cycle, but it seems like a waste to me. I don't really care so much about fixes to the Documentation texts or source comments because, in my estimation, they probably have a much smaller audience than the kernel configuration interface. I guess I'm just more sensitive to the presentation aspects of a project than the average developer, but I can't help feel it's a shame when we're willing to show the public such an unpolished face in a "final" product. To me, good code is taken down a notch by haphazard presentation. Thoughts? Cheers, Matt > > cu > Adrian > > -- > >"Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out > of the darkness.
