Yes, last rumors say that linux-2.2 came out short before christmas. Oh, i can generate a kernel-image_2.1.125-1_powerpc.deb along with source and dsc files and upload it to master, but will you and the other arch maintainer agree with this?? > > Brian and the other arch maintainer with 2.1 kernels: what about to > > have the linux-cvs tree (as a debian package) in experimental??

The linux-cvs tree fits better for all architecturces then the 'normal' linus tree. But anyway, i think start working on pre-linux-2.2 is a good thing. Xfree needs some work for framebuffers, new alternativly x11 setup for boot-floppies, new config files for the kernel-package, ... BTW: have we binaries for the bttv driver available (video/audio driver)?
