Note that not all kernel mailing lists use Patchwork, but I guess you can always subscribe your own internal copies of it to the lists, right?
Correct. Luckily, one of my team members is a Patchwork wizard and she can add new lists on our instance.
You can just go off of my email announcements for the -rc releases and do testing on that. That would be a great first step, and if you can not automatically detect this, I can add you to the email announcement if you want to trigger off of that.
We can monitor the -rc tags when they are added in the repository if that works for you. I'd like to avoid adding anything else to your already busy workflow. :)
Also you could watch the linux-stable-rc git tree for updates, that will be updated at -rc announcement time, and at other "time to take a break" moments in my development cycle.
Would you prefer tests to run prior to the -rc being tagged in linux-stable? We can run tests on a regular schedule there if that's convenient.
Thanks for the quick reply.
