Hi Marcel and Johan,

here is what I did so far:

- I asked you whether contributions from newcomers are welcome (which Marcel agreed to),

- I coordinated the development target and approach with Marcel to make sure that my contribution will be generally useful and acceptable,

- I read lots of documentation to make sure that I'm asking as few redundant questions as possible,

- I invested a considerable amount of time to put a useful contribution together,

- Arman invested a considerable amount of time to review it,

- I again invested a considerable amount of time to work in all review comments.

- I waited for several weeks and pinged you several times to get you to do your part as maintainers...

What am I missing?? Did I overlook your response? Or is this the "normal" Kernel community approach?

Please feel free to ignore this email and you'll not hear from me again.

Florian

No need to get worried or frustrated about your set. It hasn't been forgotten about and it hasn't lost the chance to get included in the first possible kernel release, i.e. 4.2. It'll very likely go into a bluetooth-next pull request before the 4.2 merge window opens.

For my part I have no major objections after reading it through a couple of times - I remember Marcel saying he'd take a look after Arman's review, which is what I've mostly be waiting for. But in no case has your set been forgotten.

Ok, cool. Thanks for letting me know. I really got frustrated w/o getting any feedback but now it's ok. :)

Sorry that I couldn't respond to this thread sooner (I've been out sick). I feel that the #bluez IRC channel is a good resource in these situations where there's long-term radio silence over the mailing list. The maintainers are generally very active on the channel (assuming you're in their time zone) and they usually respond to your messages pretty quickly. So feel free to give that a shot. You can find more info on the IRC channels here: http://www.bluez.org/contact/

As far as your patches go, I don't have any more comments beyond the ones that I left earlier and you've already addressed them, so it's up to Marcel to take a look now.

Thanks!
Arman

Thanks for your feedback. I'll test #bluez next time. :-)
