ACK must come from subsystem maintainers. Having public review would allow the community review, which is now just not possible today. As about patches from the maintainer, they might be committed without his approval, but still sent for review. If a maintainer goes outside his area, he has to get approval from the other subsystem maintainer. - ArnaudReceived on Mon Jul 11 2011 - 19:48:06 UTC
