>The answer to "is it desirable to improve X?" is always "yes." But
the only way to make progress in Linux is to actually post patches
that "improve X." This is unlike many corporate environments, where
you might need to get somebody's approval
Precisely. Please excuse me coming from a corporate background.
In corporate, even if you "get somebody's approval", there may be "other stakeholders" who may "feel ownership" etc etc
Thank you
Mark
