I'm wondering if it makes sense to do more regular releases of -stable so that the patchqueue doesn't build up so much. It's painful to sit down and review lots of patches in one sitting. Additionally, with lots of change, it's a real pain to figure out "which one of the 50 patches that went into the last -stable makes my machine not boot" (which I had to do recently). Or maybe cc: the reviewer list when patches get added? Or maybe both?
