The motivation was that it didn't get reset when we went from 2.6.22 to 2.6.23, and after one build hits rawhide, it's too late. Also, it's just better because it accurately reflects the topology of change. A spec release is a variant of a kernel snapshot, not vice versa. _______________________________________________ Fedora-kernel-list mailing list Fedora-kernel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-kernel-list
