OK. Just so Im clear, Ill patch against the tail of the set (ie -mm1), and you'll push them forward into the
WTH? "you'll" ??

are we talking apostrophes here, or division of labor ?
If the latter, what have I missed ?
Andrew specifically said 'patch against next -mm', I intended to follow his instructions.

apostrophes :)

oops :) I guess youll is just too visually grating

are you referring to the replacement patch for 20/20 ?
The one that said RFC ??

heh - youre right, tho :-} I retract that patch.
Forgive the over-wound (and in retrospect, kinda stunned) newbie !

I'll spend some time making the Doc more coherent, and into an actual patch.
I guess I was hoping for some comments before doing this..

Whats a good name for this file? (for purposes of focusing the tone and content)
Doc/sysfs/gpio-interface ? Doc/hwmon/gpio-sysfs-interface ?

thanks !
