These are what the user wants. If there was a ISO server room standard somewhere that specified no automatically generated free ice cream, but a 200-line patch would include this feature in Xen (disabled by default), I'd say the right thing to do is to include the patch, standard be damned. More to the point, if generating free ice cream was a natural byproduct of whatever we were doing already, and someone said, "But the standard says no automatic free ice cream" and submitted a patch to disable it, I'd argue against it too. Same principle applies. :-) -George _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel |
