This is an annoyance: the way you reply means that messages arrive in
duplicate to me: one is directed at the list only (as To:) and the other
to me only (as To:). So when I replied to the personal reply, the list
was not in Cc:. This is annoying... :-/
What is the reason to use an NNTP client to handle a mailing list (i.e.
mails!) ? Can't you use a mail client instead?
Anyway, here is the message respun with the list in Cc: this time...

Yeah, I was getting quite fed up with carrying this series and rebasing
it over and over again for the past two years or so... ;-)
Not that this is my oldest series, either! :-/

Well, rather than accumulate patches in this series, I'd rather we focus
on the core of it: building a stand-alone libudev.
I only included two converted packages in this series, as an example of
what it could be used as: a package that selects it and a package that
optionally depends on it.
Once libudev is in the tree, then we can look at converting more
packages.

Oh, so you already have been testing this series, then?
Would you care doing a review of it, possibly even just "tested-by" tags
would be a good indication that they work in your case too, so that the
maintainers have more confidence in it, that it is useful.

Yann E. MORIN.
