Your diffs are definitely desired - I'm sorry if previous ones are mouldering due to inattention; we're somewhat understaffed. :( If you also have some PR#s for the older ones that got black-holed, I'll also do my best to dig them up and deal with them. > I've got more patches to FreeBSD, but I feel reluctant to submit > them, because nobody cares to either review them or commit them. Again, if you can make sure that both Mike Smith and I have these and any pending problems brought to our attention, we'll do our best. Something else you might want to consider is the option of applying for a commit bit so that you can simply make the changes yourself. Are you ready for the heavy mantle of direct responsibility? :-) - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
