What's needed is "a person" (possibly more than one, but that's neither here nor there) who's also wearing a committer hat and is willing to front this for you in -current. Find yourself that person to stand behind and understand that no matter what you might personally be willing to promise, it's still HE who's going to be held most principally responsible for it since his fingerprints will be the ones directly on the repository and so should thus have at least some *hope* of understanding your code, at least. Any random committer won't do or I might be even willing to do it myself, if only to see what your next move was. :-) However, I'm not a FS dude and never pretended to be so it's gotta be one of those other 107 committers who play in /sys more often than I do. Find one, work the change through him, do it just like all the other "complete strangers" out there have done it and it will be done. :-) Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe current" in the body of the message
