Could we get these trivial patches off the lkml? Yes, lkml already has a lot of traffic, but no, this is not useful :-(.

The outreachy instructions say to use the -nol argument to get_maintainers, which would prevent them from being sent to any mailing list. However others thought that all patches should be sent to mailing lists, and so I haven't enforced anything for people who have omitted -nol. However I have tried to remove bcm maintainers from CC lists on replies and reminded people not to send you patches, julia > > Pavel > -- > (english) http://www.livejournal.com/~pavelmachek > (cesky, pictures) http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pavel/picture/horses/blog.html >

Can we at least make those people put the word "outreachy" in the subject so the emails are easier to delete?

It's easy for you to filter away as-is if you want to to by just looking at the cc: list for outreachy right now, don't make a new step for people to jump through because you don't want to be bothered. You only have 10 more days of it if you want to just ignore any patch until then... greg k-h
