[RFC] Linux 2.6.9.1-pre1 contents
From: Chuck Ebbert
Date: Thu Oct 28 2004 - 21:24:53 EST
I have been working on a set of patches that I currently call
Linux 2.6.9.1. What follows is the file 000-MANIFEST, the table
of contents for the patchset. Since the patchset is currently
65 separate files and the administrator of kernel.org says I
have to be in the MAINTAINERS file to post patches there, I
propose to upload the whole patchset as a uuencoded .tar.bz2
to the mailing list (it is about 42K.)
Comments and suggestions for addition or removal of patches welcomed.
