Peter, hi again.

While the content of this patch seems definitely unrelated to mips, we in
mips are very interested in QEMU documention framework extended and
improved, since we plan (in a mid-term) a major overhaul of both external
and internal mips-related QEMU documentation.

That is why I am closely observing activities in that area, and most
probably the missing context that left you wandering why I participate in
the discussions on these patches at all. Hopefully this explanations
removes some of your dilemmas.

Best regards,
Aleksandar

Hello, Peter.

My intented meaning (of my Acked-by) is:

“I agree that this patch is valuable in general, I took a look at the code
changes and they look good to me implementation-wise, but I am not a
reviewer nor an expert in rst and related areas, so I am not comfortable
“reviewing-it-by” - however as a potential user/writer of rst files, I want
to acknowledge the significance and the rightness of the patch by
“acking-it-by”.”

I am not sure how it fits in other definitions, but I am comfortable with
your changing my “Acked-by” to “Reviewed-by”, leaving it as is, or changing
it to nothing- whatever you deem being suitable.

The same applies to the other patch of this series, of course.

Yours,
Aleksandar

Hi Aleksandar; I'm just wondering what you were meaning
with this acked-by tag. Generally acked-by means  (to me,
and I think usually with qemu) "this patch touches an
area that I maintain, I haven't reviewed it but I'm OK with
it". But this series isn't mips-related, so maybe you
meant reviewed-by instead ?

(Acked-by is a bit of an odd tag because it's less
clear what it means than reviewed-by or signed-off-by,
so it's not very surprising if you've picked up a
different opinion on what it's for.)

thanks
