Subject: so ... what *are* candidates for removal?
Date: Tue, 1 May 2007 11:01:09 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0705011050080.11853@localhost.localdomain> (raw)


  at the risk of spawning yet another thread and another flamefest,
what *are* the kernel features that should be considered candidates
for removal, either now or at some point in the future.

  please, no discussions about mechanisms or kernel warnings or the
like -- just the features whose value is nearing their end.  i'll even
volunteer to collect all that info and summarize it here:

http://fsdev.net/wiki/index.php?title=Stuff_to_be_removed

because that's just the kind of guy i am, and i have the week off, and
i'm bored. :-)
