Besides very serious issues, I'm not willing to consider any more bug
fixes for the 'net' tree at this time.

Only one pending known bug qualifies, and that's the CIPSO ip option
processing OOPS'er.  And I'll work on that myself if Paul Moore
doesn't show a sign of life in the next day.

Thanks.
Now only fixes for truly "show stopper" bugs will be accepted for
the 3.5 stream.  I don't believe that any of the handful of fixes
currently in wireless.git (but not yet in net.git) are sufficiently
important to make the cut.

I will pull the current wireless.git tree into the wireless-next.git
tree, and then wireless.git will remain frozen until 3.6-rc1 is
released.  If you have a wireless fix that you believe is sufficiently
important to merit being in 3.5, then please post it to the netdev
list (and Cc: linville@tuxdriver.com when you do so).

Thanks,

John
