maybe it'is a stupid question, but some one why Openwrt didn't use LTS
kernel like in
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git
At the moment the version is raised manually.
Do you want to automatically apply a new Kernel-Version, if the
stable tree updates? (e.g. 3.8.4 to 3.8.5)
I think changing it manually makes sense, we at least know that
"generic" patches still do apply. Builds won't automatically break for
every target.
I don't think Sylvain was talking about any auto-using the latest
kernel from 3.8 (or other) release. I believe it's about using kernel
version that is longterm support (2.6.34 or 3.0 or 3.2 or 3.4 - see
kernel.org). We still may update from (for example) 3.2.41 to 3.2.42
manually, we just shouldn't use 3.3 as a kernel for AA release. 3.3
isn't longterm support, it's EOL, no more 3.3.X releases (even
security!) are coming.
3.3 has been chosen as AA was meant to be released those days..
