In a nutshell, its a hair-brained scheme to get a few minor changes to kernel-package into stable (s-p-u, not t-p-u, my mistake), to allow linux-2.6 into volatile. Even though I originally posted this, after speaking to Sven on IRC, on furhter consideration I too am pretty dubious about the merrits of this going into stable. -- Horms -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
