It just didn't seem very relevant: people weren't keeping me up to date and
a lot of the patches which were going in weren't related to anything on the
lists.


I liked it. I think it gives you a good idea of the bigger changes
that need to happen and who is doing what. It might be a good idea to
keep around when you want to impose some sort of code freeze.


Anyway I have removed AS from the list because it is done. I removed CFQ
as well because when the schedulers become runtime selectable (sometime
I hope), merging it becomes a non issue, even during the stable series I
think.

I updated the kernel/sched.c section a bit.

I moved 64-bit dev_t from should fix to must fix.

It looks like quite a bit can be struck off, but I'll leave it up to those
who actually did the work.


Thanks. Just for you, I'll do an update.


Hows it going?


Maybe these should go in Documentation/must-fix/ to make patching and
syncing easier?


maybe...



IMO it would help
