I've heard this before, but I didn't find it to be that much different than any other project where I've contributed changes. I think the biggest annoyance was that, because the kernel project is so big and hierarchical, you don't always get a lot of feedback (even when one of the maintainers picks up your patch in their tree to go upstream). -- Chris Adams <[email protected]> Systems and Network Administrator - HiWAAY Internet Services I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble. -- devel mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
