Will do -- no problem.

There's a small correction that needs to be made to the kmodtool-mmc
file to align it with the standard kmodtool file (that we have
published). This is not an error of your creation but just a small
change that I had not got around to making in the -0.0-3 source
package.

There is one other thing that I would like to discuss with you and
other members of the ELRepo admin team -- the version and release
numbers. Following the standard procedure, as recommended by Dag, the
mmc kmod package was created as version 0.0, release 1. Two minor
changes to the package (but not the tarball source code) were
subsequently made which resulted in version 0.0, release 3.

As you have taken the -0.0-3 source package and added code to it to
provide extra support, I do not think it is appropriate to make it
available as version 0.0, release 4. We should either increment the
version minor number and reset the release to one or increment the
major version number and reset the release to one. Basically, I am
saying that we should either make this package available as -0.1-1 or
-1.0-1 -- which, though, I cannot decide. :-)

Admin team and Nickolay -- Will you please give me your views on this?
Once we have an agreement, I will build, sign, upload and document
accordingly.

Alan.
