[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 3/4] docs/submittingpatches.html: remove version tag for nominations

[Emil Velikov]

From: Emil Velikov <emil.veliko at collabora.com>

The version tag used to nominate has bitten even experienced mesa
developers. Not to mention that it deviates from the one used in the
kernel leading to further confusion.

Simplify things and omit it all together.

Another option would be to align it with the kernel one, but that could
bring even further confusion.

I'll gladly welcome any input on the topic.

 Simply adding the CC to the mesa-stable list address is adequate to nominate

 This "CC" syntax for patch nomination will cause patches to automatically be
 copied to the mesa-stable@ mailing list when you use "git send-email" to send
