Do we need a place to put hotfix patches, or do we just need a list of
links to lkml postings to said patches. Such a list has the advantage
of pointing into the discussion surrounding each such fix, and such a
list has the advantage of not holding so much redundant data (these
patches will be redundant with what was posted on lkml). Redundant
data out of context goes stale, and is less valuable.
I can imagine someone (not me ;) keeping a wiki web page, listing for
each *-mm and Linus release the particular lkml patch postings that one
needs to pick off to get a build and boot.
Just brainstorming ...
That would just come closer to a repositories check-in description. I vote for
such a thing. If it is a wiki or not.
Why have a list of pointers to go fishing for things out of an email
archive, rather than just dump the patchs straight into a directory?
Seeing as Andrew seems to have already created a subdir to do this, the
point seems somewhat moot by now ;-)
