Well, I'm not running it because it's got too much garbage in it, which makes
it a pretty unrealistic testbed. And to make matters worse, I also stay
away from rc's as a consequence.
To make -mm more viable, it may be advisable to restructure -mm in such a way
as to be a Kconfig option to mainline. This would probably involve some
patch management functionality to apply experimental submissions on a
per-patch basis, as opposed to being a 'take it or leave it slam onto
mainline' patch.
Thanks!
