I've started digging into current kdbus to understand the changes you made and
have a question.
Where does all the development happen?

For example your current tree contains the following commit:

commit f3adf84302fb4fdb6698cf129b96546b47e27d33

    kdbus: skip mandatory items on negotiation

    The kdbus negotiation is used to figure out what items and flags an ioctl
    supports. It is highly impractical to pass in mandatory items when all we
    do is negotiation. Therefore, allow user-space to skip mandatory items if
    KDBUS_FLAG_NEGOTIATE is passed.

Where was this patch posted to? Do you have mailinglist where one can follow the
discussions? As it carries an ACK there must be some review process.
