Hi Dave,
I'm sorry if I've caused some confusion, but I didn't think that I was
submitting patches to you and know nothing about your two trees.
I was submitting patches to Thomas and Herbert, the registered
maintainers of rhashtable. I assumed they would review, respond, and
take responsibility for getting them upstream, if that's what they
decided, based on whatever arrangements they have in place.
If it is appropriate I can resend all of my patches that receive an
Ack as a coherent series, and send this to you nominating a particular
tree, but I'm unlikely to do that unless asked and told which tree to
nominate.
Thanks,
NeilBrown
