[$] Analyzing kernel email
Digging into the email that provides the cornerstone of Linux kernel
development is an endeavor that has become more popular over the last few
years. There are some practical reasons for analyzing the
kernel mailing lists and for correlating that information with the patches
that actually reach the mainline, including tracking the path that
patches take—or don't take. Three researchers reported on some efforts
they have made on kernel email analysis at the 2019
Embedded Linux Conference Europe (ELCE), held in late October in Lyon, France.
