It was done when the staging stuff was added to linux-next - otherwise my builds (and many others) would fail most of the time (it may be better now, but at the beginning, there was a lot of mess in staging). The reasoning is that build failures in staging should in no way hold up the rest of our development. --=20 Cheers, Stephen Rothwell sfr@canb.auug.org.au http://www.canb.auug.org.au/~sfr/ --Signature=_Thu__23_Sep_2010_16_04_23_+1000_SXkYwkLBTh/nYb7C Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJMmu3nAAoJEDMEi1NhKgbsdvYH/jrrYJEyqIvIYC2VWg9Zssrb rJCWb0ykWyB7dIewOugEsHP9r7xD904gOt6OPtzpYwQtaJ3LbWeeMIM/MBa/6QQU QhZkQWbeDc1i1mXtYs0Kk1ZwftF8mCAhDZc2zSAusFugZpQYAYMK328JrDDIxmub aumfaUJ3Fm/RWTARm4iOOgNBWiE7mr4v4rXFCX/odgAp/SeLhtP2t8iTe1BERD5r mJ3N7anp6qdgS3uDBmJcrWcQxVzj6p7O/fD/vImrTQOnKCSTT7nFlrln0bE0kCgE DlpnnEuoxVMTcyExmQkLsMPkFH6shXfQxQO6Z2HKqVfF6jrkiFdS+DMcHYTeKS8= =vn5E -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Signature=_Thu__23_Sep_2010_16_04_23_+1000_SXkYwkLBTh/nYb7C--
