    List of maintainers and how to submit kernel changes
 
-Please try to follow the guidelines below.  This will make things
-easier on the maintainers.  Not all of these guidelines matter for every
-trivial patch so apply some common sense.
-
-1.   Always _test_ your changes, however small, on at least 4 or
-   5 people, preferably many more.
-
-2.   Try to release a few ALPHA test versions to the net. Announce
-   them onto the kernel channel and await results. This is especially
-   important for device drivers, because often that's the only way
-   you will find things like the fact version 3 firmware needs
-   a magic fix you didn't know about, or some clown changed the
-   chips on a board and not its name.  (Don't laugh!  Look at the
-   SMC etherpower for that.)
-
-3.   Make sure your changes compile correctly in multiple
-   configurations. In particular check that changes work both as a
-   module and built into the kernel.

 4.   When you are happy with a change make it generally available for
    testing and await feedback.
 
 5.   Make a patch available to the relevant maintainer in the list. Use
-   'diff -u' to make the patch easy to merge. Be prepared to get your
-   changes sent back with seemingly silly requests about formatting
-   and variable names.  These aren't as silly as they seem. One
-   job the maintainers (and especially Linus) do is to keep things
-   looking the same. Sometimes this means that the clever hack in
-   your driver to get around a problem actual needs to become a
-   generalised kernel feature ready for next time. See
-   Documentation/CodingStyle for guidance here.
-
-   PLEASE try to include any credit lines you want added with the
-   patch. It avoids people being missed off by mistake and makes
-   it easier to know who wants adding and who doesn't.
-
-   PLEASE document known bugs. If it doesn't work for everything
-   or does something very odd once a month document it.
-
-6.   Make sure you have the right to send any changes you make. If you
-   do changes at work you may find your employer owns the patch
-   not you.
