You know that Florian was talking about releases? For the Linux kernel
releases are just source blobs while for us releases are mostly binary
ones. That's a big difference.
The Linux equivalent of us suggesting to download and compile from SVN
would be to follow e.g. linux-next.git, do a pull every now and then and
recompile and install the kernel.
