Seriously, please find something more productive to do than making
these never-ending complaints about changelog entries. It might've
been fun for the first few times but it's getting really boring now.

eck apart from the fact that if there isn't
an arch update after a security update to kernel-source, then that arch
is probably vulnerable. If you've got an idea on how this can improved,
please let us know.

it contained all the security fixes.
I believe that distributing a binary package that may contain
known security problems is a very serious problem.

I agree that we should try to maintain compatibility. But it should not
override the need to include new stable kernel releases from upstream.

hitecture maintainers send me patches which clearly don't affect
other archs or otherwise cause build problems, I will merge them.
I don't think we can guarantee a tree that builds on all or most
architectures, but we should be able to keep the difference to a
minimum.

n be better prepared for subsequent security alerts.
And please don't exaggerate about the possibility of breaking systems.
New versions are only uploaded to proposed-updates after extensive testing
by the maintainers, the users in unstable as well as the general Linux
user base. If you have a particular breakage in the 2.4 line in mind,
please bring it up so we can see how it could've be dealt with better.
Cheers,

ch conflicts that you're seeing.
So essentially throwing them out means that your architecture will miss
out on all bug fixes. If this turns out to be what most of you want, then
that's fine and I will do just that.

initramfs is currently 100% backwards compatible. So no changes
