If nobody objects to that we need to update the patch submission<br>

There seems to be a great deal of confusion among folks who think this means it's pending upstream review, rather than just being a patch we haven't done anything with yet. It might be worth considering improving that naming, or perhaps emphasizing it more in the documentation.<br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">Christopher Larson<br>clarson at kergoth dot com<br>Founder - BitBake, OpenEmbedded, OpenZaurus<br>Maintainer - Tslib<br>Senior Software Engineer, Mentor Graphics</div>
