Never fear, I'm perfectly willing to tell them the same thing to their
faces, but it is like nothing can stop them. Wholesale gratuitous changes
have become their way of life, and my feeble little attempts at
intervention don't phase them :-).
Hmmm... do "Open Source" modules have the same problem? Do these
"wholesale gratuitous changes" occur during minor revision changes or
major version changes? Major version changes in most software change the
API, while minor revisions do not. Are the kernel modules not consistent
with this?
I've never had a problem with wholesale gratuitous changes, but then
again, I only use open source modules, and the kernel modules I've
developed (drivers for a special serial card to interface to prototype
satellite instruments) have had no problem.
