# Form letter - net-next is closed

We have already submitted the networking pull request to Linus
for v6.2 and therefore net-next is closed for new drivers, features,
code refactoring and optimizations. We are currently accepting
bug fixes only.

Please repost when net-next reopens after Jan 2nd.

RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time.  

Hello Jakub, sorry for asking dumb questions, but what exactly "RFC"
means? I understand you cannot accept new submissions at this time, but
does this means the patchset I just submitted can still be reviewd so
they are ready for integration on Jan 2nd?

Yes, exactly. You can keep posting new versions, to get reviews and get
the code ready for merging once net-next re-opens. Once net-next
re-opens you'll need to repost (it'd be too much work for us to keep
track of all "pending" work during the shutdown).

By the RFC I mean - change the [PATCH net-next] to [RFC net-next] or
[PATCH RFC net-next] if you post during shutdown, so that we know that
you know that the patches can't be merged _right now_.
