In Cambridge, when we discussed cleanups that touch a lot of files but have no functional change -- somebody suggested that right after rc1 closes is a good time. The reasoning was that they would not conflict with the functional changes in rc1. However, I recall Linus saying something about "Andrew is special" WRT permission to push cleanups after the rc1 window; so I don't know what the final ruling was -- if there was such a ruling. -Len -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
