How would we indicate our interest to the development team? How are updates and future development project priorities decided?
Several methods..
Supplied patches often get a high priority (though not in this case, since we have a patch that is very complicated and not easy to apply since it is based off of different implementations of the expunge code that is in the 2.3 CVS).
Quite honestly, development priorities are most often (Though not always) set around what CMU needs most at the time. Sort of selfish, but very true. Things like virtual domains got implemented because Ken was bored though.
Another way to indicate your interest is with a hefty donation to CMU, of course :)
