Anyone know what's happening with the Eudyptula Challenge? I sent in my Task 03 solution a few days ago and have got no response. I resent it, and still nothing. Apologies in advance if this is the wrong place to ask about it. Thanks. -- Greg Donald
Hi Greg. Maybe the system is overloaded again. =/ The last task I sent was answered in five days. Don't worry and wait. Is there anyone who is facing the same thing? Thanks. -- Julio Cesar Faracco University of São Paulo - Brazil

Sometimes it takes weeks, months, before someone pick up your patch on LKML. So please wait. In the mean time, check that you use git format-patch and that git send-email, *especially* git send-email, is able to send an email with the proper format (check From:, To:, Subject: etc.). And you could have a look to http://lwn.net/Articles/599231/ "Taking the Eudyptula Challenge" for entertainment (wait, what, you're not yet a LWN.net subscriber ?). PS: you're not the only one waiting for an answer, check the list archives: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.kernelnewbies Regards. -- Yann Droneaud OPTEYA

I know, I saw a patch from two years ago get picked up just yesterday.

Yup, I did all that.. used mutt, my response was Signed-off, everything. But at the same time I was wondering if I did the Subject: correctly since I was trying to make a valid [PATCH] subject line while also including my Eudyptula id too.

I am a LWN subscriber actually.. but I'm sure that has nothing to do with my brain's lack of delayed gratification software :) -- Greg Donald

Greg, During the dead time, you might want to spend some time with the kernelnewbies archives. One source is: https://www.mail-archive.com/kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org/ If you search for "Eudyptula task 03" you will find lots of hits. If you scroll down that list you will find this message: https://www.mail-archive.com/kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org/msg10245.html Basically as of a week ago it was taking about a week to get task 3 feedback. I'm assuming a human is in the loop so it takes some time. Greg
