It is as clear as mud now when stable at vger.kernel.org should be Cc'd and when it should not.[...] Perhaps what you're missing is that it's an open mailing list (as was stable at kernel.org), not an alias for 'the stable team'. As with any other kernel mailing list, you don't need to get explicit permission to send mail to it. So there is no 'should not'.Then please explain why people keep getting Greg's standard form "this is not how you submit patches for stable" when they CC a _discussion_ to the address.When someone sends a patch that they want to be applied in mainline and then later in stable updates, they must include the cc: line in the commit message. Actually cc'ing to the stable list is optional. When someone sends a preliminary version of a patch for discussion, and that might, after proper submission, be wanted in stable updates, that line is not necessary. The patch should however have '[RFC]' in the subject, so everyone understands that this is not a request for the patch to be applied. This should not result in a form response.
You're still saying something different from the DOCUMENTED position and you're still refusing to accept that you are - even after I've quoted the _exact_ text which is _very_ _clear_. Please fix the documentation.
