What kernel tree should I use to develop NFS & RPC patches for possible upstream acceptance?

Thanks,
Ben

I think for the stuff you're doing it would just be the upstream git tree at kernel.org. Note that nfs-utils is separate.

Has anyone pointed you to the wiki? I think it answers many of these questions, although it seems heavily slanted towards pnfs.

It would be nice to reorganize the wiki, especially that top page.

I'd kind of like linux-nfs.org to just point to some page on the wiki some day.

I've actually signed up to revamp linux-nfs.org. I'll begin work on that very soon (after bakeathon and my vacation).
