However rest assured that I took them into account. If you noticed in my annoucement for 2.6.18, I have removed the perfmon KAPI interface, for instance. As for the UUID to string conversion, this was also pointed out by Andrew and it is work-in-progress. So here is the additional feedback I will put in the summary: [hch]: remove perfmon kernel-level API (perfmon_kapi.c), it is not justified - done [hch]: use strings insead of UUID - work in progress In general, I do listen to comments. The summary of changes is a good proof of that, I think. Thanks. -- -Stephane
