I know Con personally and I completely identify with his circumstance. This is precisely why he quit the project because of a generally perceived ignorance and disconnect from end users. Since you side with Ingo on many issues politically, this response from you is no surprise. Again, the choices that have been currently made with CFS basically locks him out of development. If you don't understand that, then you don't understand the technical issues he's struggled to pursue. He has a large following which is why this has been a repeated and issue between end users of his tree and a number of current Linux kernel developers. bill
