2013-07-31Documentation: add networking/netdev-FAQ.txtPaul Gortmaker1-0/+224
A collection of expectations and operational details about how networking development takes place in the context of the netdev mailing list. The content is meant to capture specific items that are unique to netdev workflow, and not re-document generic linux expectations that are already captured elsewhere. This was originally proposed[1] as a regular posting mailing list FAQ, but it probably is more universally accessible here in tree.
