Should we be adding new drivers during -rc?
I'm personally of the opinion that a new driver that doesn't add anything but itself (ie no infrastructure changes etc) is fine. I'd rather have a new, rough driver that might work, than no driver at all, and it's not like it can cause a regression if you don't enable it.


Yes, I too think that adding new standalone code in late -rc is OK.

ACK, thanks!

Jeff
