The ideal situation is for you to send two sets of patches, one for 2.4
tree and one for 2.5 tree. Those will get applied to 2.4.21-pre and
2.5.<latest>. Patches against 2.4.20 proper are ok as long as they
apply correctly to the latest 2.4.21-pre tree (so, patches against
2.4.21-pre are preferred)
If the patches are the same for 2.4 and 2.5, just send one set and note
that fact. My preference would be to address these patches
(David, feel free to correct me here, or direct patches to me)
When you receive bug fixes, forwarding ASAP would be very much appreciated.
