A problem about linux/Documentation/SubmittingPatches

[Harry Wei]

Hi us,
   I have seen linux-2.6.7/Documentation/SubmittingPatches but it hasn't described how to submit a translated document to kernel. I have also sent mail to <linux-kernel@zh-kernel.org>, however, there is no response.
   I have translated linux-2.6.37/Decumentation/SecurityBugs(no one translated it up to now). I'd like to send it to maintainers, then add it into kernel directories. However, I don't know how i can do it. Can anyone tell me howto do it? Thanks so much :)

   Best Regards.
   Harry Wei.

Hi,

AFAIK, Greg KH handles all of the translation merging.

Right, Greg?

Yes, please feel free to send me any translations in patch form and I
will be glad to merge them.

     Patch form? There is no patch form for translation document in kernel directories. Following is my translation document(for linux-2.6.37/Documentation/SecurityBugs). I have translated it(linux-2.6.37/Documentation/SecurityBugs) into Chinese.

No, you need to send me a patch, as described in
Documentation/SubmittingPatches that adds the file to the kernel source
tree.  That's the only way we can apply it, and is what I have done for
all of the other translated files in the kernel.

thanks,
