Added from today. Thanks for adding your subsystem tree as a participant of linux-next. As you may know, this is not a judgement of your code. The purpose of linux-next is for integration testing and to lower the impact of conflicts between subsystems in the next merge window.=20 You will need to ensure that the patches/commits in your tree/series have been: * submitted under GPL v2 (or later) and include the Contributor's Signed-off-by, * posted to the relevant mailing list, * reviewed by you (or another maintainer of your subsystem tree), * successfully unit tested, and=20 * destined for the current or next Linux merge window. Basically, this should be just what you would send to Linus (or ask him to fetch). It is allowed to be rebased if you deem it necessary. --=20 Cheers, Stephen Rothwell=20 sfr@canb.auug.org.au --Sig_/ySqoajbBqbhy0s/Yyi/jEcM Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEENIC96giZ81tWdLgKAVBC80lX0GwFAmMfluEACgkQAVBC80lX 0GzrXAf9ESId1RmQujmRO/suIb7p60bPOkr5l/1EmdjlqHgMfXoP0bDKsbHNd3Do ZOf+Qj8BPc1KuPXgGEqZ8bWxEMOu5NtVl82bbhQwaMZbaObcE+CW34aaenRKRBCq kPAHrUAe3SGkuyVjQJFX0I0PdGe7WYoar4MhO3ULl1USnIEF0p6GCXXe1DvR2LRA 6ZMdZbx+g9cPc2ya5lzpHLIkTaDSjjjE/blGA0UFuUYAyRUVEw0rGig1iPnQA+EP dr+aQ+9vZ1OICIy2tSpsplEl2Otk4rTA0EAB/BVYTDOBgMQQ6CLZN9o+1tHnmsuK /BZ7ql3uk0XzQR2n0awIeOjS13b5Sg== =u95+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/ySqoajbBqbhy0s/Yyi/jEcM--
