Well, most of the recent 2.6 PPC kernel development was based on sending _patches_ to akpm, I don't see how Linus' decision to stop using BK will significantly affect this. Also, BK trees don't go anywhere right now, so I guess we can still use BK to get/maintain the latest official sources for patch generation. I'm pretty sure Linus and other maintainers will come up with replacement. Probably it won't be as convenient as BK at first, but I hope this will be fixed eventually - there are couple of open source revision control systems out there which look promising. So, I wouldn't overly dramatize current situation. -- Eugene
