What do you think of a bk repository for kjt? I did a search and i didn't see anything related with this topic, am i missing something ?

I don't have any "religion" problems with bk, but I also don't see advantages. I doubt many would want to clone kj-bk tree, as there is not much improvements (like driver for latest card, or something). But feel free to show me advantages, I might consider using bk.

Reading all recent -mm announces we see that Andrew is merging acpi, agpgart, arm, cifs and others bk trees. I think that he can merge bk-kjt too and we'll see more testing of these patches posted at this list.

As Randy noted, same could be done with patches.
Also note... those trees you mention come from maintainers, but kj patches need to get TO maintainers.

Actually, the kjt 'release process' is post the patchset to lkml when kjt maintainer feels that it's ok, no? IMO, it can be done the same way but asking for Andrew merge bk-kjt before release -mm kernels adding there (bk-kjt) only reviewed patches posted at this list. Comments?

If you think that it's a good idea and there's no server to setup it (and i guess that bkbits won't be a problem), i can host it atm.

Hope that helps,
