I much prefer patches that fix bugs or add features. -- error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

I much prefer patches that fix bugs or add features. > Ofcourse everyone prefers bug fixes and new features :-) I simply looked at greg's "submit a patch" video. And thought, hey I could do this, and help clean up code. Cleaner code makes it more accessible and I get to know where everything is located. So I am going to continue making patches like these and become more familiar with the whole kernel. -- Keimpe de Jong -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo(a)vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/

Better concentrate on the drivers/staging-directory for that. Such patches are very welcome there, which may be not so true for the rest of the kernel. You can probably find a couple of mail-threads stating the pros and cons. Regards, Wolfram -- Pengutronix e.K. | Wolfram Sang | Industrial Linux Solutions | http://www.pengutronix.de/ |
