The situation is now sufficiently confusing that I'll wait for pre9-3 or even the next `real' patch before continuing to merge with Linus. In any case our diffs should be now down to less than 10% of what they used to be and I'll continue to shrink them further. The perspective of 2.4 compiling out of the box for MIPS is pretty close to reallity, including even MIPS64, SMP and Origin. In any case we'll keep merging into our separate tree. That's where all the development happens and where we send the good bits to Linus from time to time. Ralf |
