I've found that implementing this as a series of patches rather than one big patch makes it easier fro me to cope with changes to the underlying code.
reconsidered and I'll be working with your code (and the German
students' as well). If everything has to change, so be it, but it'll
still be a derived work. It would be ignoring precedent and failure to
properly attribute if I did otherwise.
I've just placed a single patch for plugsched against 2.6.21-rc7 updated to Linus's git tree as of an hour or two ago on sourceforge:
<http://downloads.sourceforge.net/cpuse/plugsched-6.5-for-2.6.21-rc7.patch>
This should at least enable you to get it to apply cleanly to the latest kernel sources. Let me know if you'd also like this as a quilt/mq friendly patch series?
A quilt-friendly series would be most excellent if you could arrange it.
