Hi Stephen, Thanks for the offer... I was hoping for Andrew to pick it up (which he now has). I'm not sure how best to do mm/ related stuff, but I suspect we have gone as smoothly as we are in large part due to Andrew's reviewing and martialling mm patches so well. Not saying that wouldn't happen if the patches went to linux-next, but I'm quite happy with how -mm works for mm development, so I will prefer to submit to -mm unless Andrew asks otherwise. For other developments I'll keep linux-next in mind. I guess it will be useful for me eg in the case where I change an arch defined prototype that requires a big sweep of the tree.
