Andrea, I already told you that I refuse to apply patches that include this many obvious cases of pure obfuscation. As I already told you in an earlier mail, your state machine only has two states, not three like the code makes you believe. Gratuitous changes like that that only show that the writer didn't actually _think_ about the code is not something I want at any stage, much less now. Linus -- This is a majordomo managed list.
