@ -74,6 +74,9 @@ sent to netdev, but knowing the above, you can predict that in advance.
Do not send new ``net-next`` content to netdev during the
period during which ``net-next`` tree is closed.
RFC patches sent for review only are obviously welcome at any time
(use ``--subject-prefix='RFC net-next'`` with ``git format-patch``).
Shortly after the two weeks have passed (and vX.Y-rc1 is released), the
tree for ``net-next`` reopens to collect content for the next (vX.Y+1)
release.
