Also, speaking of the bonding changes queued in netdev-2.4, some of
those have been queued there since 2.4.23 came out. Will those be
pushed to Marcelo during 2.4.25 or do you intend to hold them until
2.4.26-preX starts?


Sounds like DaveM and I will need to coordinate a bit, then.

Queued bonding stuff for 2.4: Marcelo wanted to wait until 2.4.25 release, so they will go to Marcelo for 2.4.26-pre1.

Queued bonding stuff for 2.6: Similar picture. Waiting for 2.6.2 release, then it goes to Andrew/Linus.

Note that at some point, IMO you need to plan on 2.6-only development, since keeping bonding the same in 2.4 and 2.6 -through ABI changes- may not be feasible past the short term. 2.4 developmnent is intentionally slowing down on Marcelo's side, even though vendors are still shipping 2.4.x stuff.
