@ljs

when I was a hobbyist I wanted to add fancy new amazing features to the kernel. now I realize that, at work, I spend moooost of my time reviewing and discussing things, and fixing bugs!

**checks how many patches I better review until the next merge window comes**

On Thursday, I sent this RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20251023-sheaves-for-all-v1-0-6ffa2c9941c0@suse.cz/
On Friday, there was the expected phoronix coverage. But also an unexpected one:
