    Wow, 2.4.9 has been out for what, 2 hours?  I've had the merge checked
    in for what 1 hour?  Can't you wait a bit for me to generate the patch?
    :)
    
    I do want to try to test the thing...

    What do you mean "standard".  Is the current patch situation not working
    for you?  If you're subscribed to the lsm-commit mailing list, all the
    different commits get sent there as patches so you can keep your tree up
    to date without having to use bitkeeper.  Isn't that enough?
    
    And I thought we said we wouldn't be releasing patches against the -pre
    kernels unless something warrants it.  So forward porting for every -pre
    release would be a lot more work than other people were willing to put
    up with.  Is that a problem?
