Nivedita, it was you specifically who complained to me when I used a seperate BK tree for networking changes last month whilst Linus was away for 2 weeks. You said that this gave IBM too many trees to work from, so I told you that what I was doing was a temporary thing until Linus came back from his trip. Now you're suggesting that I specifically do what you asked me not to do a month ago. So figure out what you really want. And I have to warn people if they think that the churn is fast and the rate of change in the networking is high right now, you have seen absolutely nothing yet. :-)
