[Click] Plans to merge pending pull requests?

[Eddie Kohler]

Hi Jimmy,

Thanks for the reminder. I went ahead and merged your pull request, as 
well as versions of all the other outstanding pull requests. I also 
updated the patchless installation procedure and some problematic 
aspects of the Click filesystem. At this point Click can install simple 
configurations into patchless Ubuntu 8.04 (2.6.24), 10.04 (2.6.32), 
12.04 (3.2), and 12.10 (3.5) kernels. I have not verified that Click can 
send and receive packets in all these configurations, but it is a start. 
Please open issues and other pull requests as you find them.

Best,
Eddie

Or, to put in another way, the module is not that useful without these fixes in its current state. Therefore it would be nice if they were included into Click.
