- bjackman 10y agoMy favourite thing about it is that there was no header email (usually [PATCH 0/n] is just text with an overview of the following patches. Then any top-level discussion (I.e. "NAK: octal is more readable") takes place in replies to that email. Instead here there are 1285 separate threads of discussion with dozens of people all saying the same thing with no easy way to discover it's already been said (and at least one maintainer has replied to every single one he's CC'd on). Beautiful carnage.
