Re: shifts on 64bit ints

Hi,

But if they are not cc'd to the linuxppc-dev list then we do need some sort of
CHANGELOG process going on.  None of the rsync trees seem to do any versioning.

Possibly we should have our own kernel mailing lists for patches and things.

        linuxppc-dev is not necessarily a patch submission mailinglist.
Until PowerPC Linux development has such a thing, I think that it is
better to coordinate with and directly send patches to someone with
write-access who can apply the patches instead of throwing them up in the
air and hoping that someone catches them.
