I was wondering what the status of the next merge window was?
The status is - and was - that we try to stay out of the way of the Linux kernel merge window. So we're waiting for Linux 2.6.23, and then at least 3 weeks...
I know there are some big changes coming and wanted to get a sense of when we might see a tree with these changes in them:
- Grant's work on kconfig
- moving of drivers around
I didn't find any time last week and the weekend, but I shouldbe able to have most of the pending stuff merged in until next weekend. That should result in 1.3.0-rc3 (which will be followed by 1.3.0 ?).
I will push 1.3.0-rc3 to -testing as base for Grant.
Moving drivers may happen after this.
Any ways I was hoping to get a sense when the big modifications would be in a tree so patches for the things I've listed would be in a form that they'd likely to be accepted.
Well, I guess you'll have to ask Linus, then :-)
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
