I've been looking at that already, some of the platforms are broken at
the moment unfortunately but I think the config options seem to be OK
at the mometn

Yes, I've seen that.

For rawhide we did seriously look at the ARM configs and you'll notice
they are significantly different from what is currently in F-17. I
would like some further feedback and suggestions as to how they could
be improved.

In terms of setting the config options for 3.5 there were set in
rawhide and had 3.5 kernels compiling through out the entire process.
Is there a process in how those options get merged back to stable
releases? Is that something I should be handling? Again would like
some details as to how I can improve the process to make it easier for
you there as well.
