LM sensors into kernel?
Hi!
What is preventing lm-sensors from being merged into kernel? Alan, given nice patch for current kernel, would you accept lm-sensors into your kernel?

Worst form of spam? Adding advertisment signatures ala sourceforge.net. What goes next? Inserting advertisment *into* email?

Linus call not mine.

Really? I know he controls what goes in the mainline, but I thought you put in what you found useful in your kernel. Certainly rmap was there until it was old enough to vote.
Clearly lm_sensors do have value in a production environment.

2.4-ac is a bit different. 2.5-ac is stuff Im holding to get a working 2.5 to test with. Im trying to avoid getting anything in it Linus wont have taken by 2.6.0

Okay, thanks. I was hoping since lm_sensors were proposed before the freeze, relatively stable, and highly useful that they might get in.

As most of the I2C code is in, I would consider the lm_sensors mainly as "drivers" so they wouldn't be hit by the freeze.
If you want it in, lobby it with Linus. I'm sure that he is open to reason (Hah! :-) ).

To tangent a bit, I was somewhat disappointed when the I2C kernel merging guy disappeared... :(
