It's hard to keep track of changes to the process docs. Subsystem maintainers should probably know what's going on, to ensure reasonably uniform developer experience across trees.
We also need a place where process discussions can be held (i.e. designated mailing list which can be CCed on naturally arising discussions). I'm using workflows@ in this RFC, but a new list may be better.
No change to the patch flow intended.
Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> --- I've been pondering the lack of cross-maintainer communication as the kernel grows, and I hope this could help bring us together a little. Plus twice over the last 2 weeks someone popped up on netdev with what I personally considered incorrect interpretation of the process docs, so it'd be nice to CC a list on my replies so I can be corrected, in case I'm wrong.
Opinions more than welcome! --- MAINTAINERS | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+)
