[BALUG-Admin] Questions for Andrew Morton (Linux Kernel Maintainer)

[jim]

   seems to me this question would be appropriate 
for the talk list. 

here are questions that come to my mind: 
   what are the three burningest needs that AM 
sees the community can help with (probably number 
one is testing...)? 
   how can we users best help out (what's the 
contact path he prefers)? 
   what are the biggest problems the linux using 
community presents to his development teams? 
   what are the three most-asked-for new features? 
   what are the three nearest-to-completion new 
features? 
   what forks in the road(s) ahead? 
   what's he got to say about embedded linux? 
   what's the future of threading? 
   what's the future approach to presenting 
management of multiple CPUs (i.e. some kind of 
synchronous/concurrent API)?
