Re: The direction linux is taking

[Ken Brownfield]

That's one of the specific options I proposed.  I think it would be best
if it were focussed on lkml reports rather than noise from everywhere,
and also if it kept the maintainers' interface as simple and explicit as
possible.  And yes, who is the question that I'm pondering as well.
