Can you give a rough estimate of how those commits diverge between bugfixes, kernel API changes, code cleanups?
Um, maybe by the time LSF rolls around ;) It'd take a while to sift though.
Next3 has been following ext3 since 2.6.31 and I remember changes of the 2 latter, but not many major bugfixes. I hardly think we can get away with throwing out ext3 code base, but maybe it can go into bugfixes-only mode? that is unless Jan likes to apply cleanups ;-)
In theory that's what it's been for a couple years already :) -Eric
