Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] Intel TXT: add reviewer, move to Odd Fixes state



I am waiting for another mail address dedicated for mailing lists that
has the disclaimer disabled. This is an official way in Intel to do
that. I don't know when it will be ready, but I expect that this process
can take few days.

From my perspective we can wait until I will have that mail address, so
I can submit this patch in "blessed" way. Sorry for this confusion.
