As stated further up this thread our current work in for 0.21 but we will
probably provide patches for 0.22 too. To clarify I am referring to the
standard 0.21 scheduler in my post above when I refer to the 'current
scheduler as we are in the process of writing/testing a patch to bring the
scheduler into line with our patch for LiveTV tuner management - I agree the
language I used was a little confusing.

However their appears to be very little if any difference between the 0.21
scheduler & the 0.22 scheduler in the context of this discussion so in that
sense my comments broadly apply to either version.

Apologies for the footer...sometimes I forget to omit it from my
posts...there was & is no intention to promote my companies products here in
anyway at all. Our only objective is to offer our patches for review/comment
and to make them available in the hope that they might be found useful by
people reading this list.
