So all the harping on about whether Red Hat developers are involved 
upstream or not, kernel politics etc is irrelevant.  Red Hat kernel 
developers wouldn't prefer discussing patches to the kernel here either.

If anyone is really interested in getting Kqemu in the Fedora, encourage 
the Kqemu developer to submit his patches to LKML instead of focusing on 
  getting the Fedora kernel maintainers to patch the kernel.
