Hi Jim,
I'd like to know if I should still submit new feature patches to here or
address@hidden
A few months ago, I found the heads up for the new address@hidden mail list,
and it mentioned
only the bugs report/fix should be send to this list. Otherwise, for the
general discussion and new
features request should go to the new list, Am I right?
But looks there is little activity in address@hidden, I have sent a few patches
related to cp(1)
sparse file enhancement through fiemap ioctl(2), but almostly no response from
the list members in
about 2 weeks, except Joel I cc-ed. Maybe nobody is interesed. :(
I know you guys are busy with work. Actually, I just want to know if I was
misunderstood the
policy? If so, I will submit the patches here.
Sorry for the inconvience!
Best regards,
-Jeff

I think the original issue has been fully dealt with so I am going to
close the issue in the bts. If you think otherwise please feel free
to follow up with more information.
This thread has gone through a little mutation during the discussion.
I think the subsequent discussion around fiemap may still have some
life in it but I think it has also mostly been resolved by discussion
on the coreutils mailing list. In any case it probably shouldn't be
here going forward. If that needs to continue then we should clone
the issue and retitle it to track that development. When possible it
is best to keep issues one per ticket. But since I think it has
concluded here too I am just going to close it with the original.
Bob
