Maybe, is it better to send patch set via github as PR from now on? I'm now writing
zram patch set for x86-64 support.

Do you plan to set a redirection from the current page? Rpm packages for
crash's extension modules have URL in each rpm information  like below and need to
modify it accordingly:

    # yum info crash-gcore-command
    Loaded plugins: langpacks, product-id, search-disabled-repos, subscription-
                  : manager
    Available Packages
    Name        : crash-gcore-command
    Arch        : x86_64
    Version     : 1.3.1
    Release     : 0.el7
    Size        : 41 k
    Repo        : rhel-7-server-rpms/7Server/x86_64
    Summary     : Gcore extension module for the crash utility
    URL         : http://people.redhat.com/anderson/extensions/crash-gcore-command-1.3.1.tar.gz
    License     : GPLv2
    Description : Command for creating a core dump file of a user-space task that
                : was running in a kernel dumpfile.

Also, when I want to release a new version of crash extnesion module, I send it to Hagio-san via
this mailing list as in the past, and then Hagio-san modifies the "crash extension modules" page.
Is this understanding correct?

Thanks for your work on crash utility. This is essential for our daily support jobs.

Personally, I met crash utility relatively early when I entered this field and have
learnt a lot thorough using, reading and writing crash utility and lots of reviews
by you this 10 years.

Thanks.
HATAYAMA, Daisuke
