Linus was _extremely_ generous and took in all the stuff that was pending in the net tree just now. 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 -- John W. Linville Someday the world will need a hero, and you linville@tuxdriver.com might be all we have. Be ready.
