I guess one could go either way. The benefit of keeping it
in SVN is that it that if any changes are needed, they are
in some database until they are pushed upstream. The benefit
of just having the kernel.org version being the latest is that
there is only one copy and no confusion as to what is the
latest version. It seems odd though to have the .h file only
in the kernel.org tree and the srp.c files in openib SVN.
One could argue that once a component is accepted upstream,
that the kernel.org version is the latest, but then it makes tracking
in between kernel.org releases a bit more difficult.
Anyone else have a comment on this one ?
