How much of responsibility does he delegate to your closer and reliable collaborators? AFAIK, Alan Cox already included a patch of LVM in an of your ACs. What the reaction of Linus? Alan's experience was not enough for him? In relation to Linux, which the great innovations that will be present in the kernel 24? Which your attentions? Plug 'n Play ? Will it be that he doesn't think the inclusion of LVM (ASAP) is it so important? What is important then? To include in the stock kernel such an important subsystem for the Linux's community like LVM (and how many other?) is it being necessary every appeal type. I still have a lot of hope and trust.
