Hi! Funny, I just started using that stuff for the first time a few days ago(¹); I was happy to find it and planed to use it regularly in the future, as I added a stable-testing to the https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Kernel_Vanilla_Repositories a few days ago. But I guess my usage is to special and is not worth keeping that stuff, as I can easily revert that in my spec. OTOH it makes it easy for people to build a stable-rc kernel in case they want to, but that also is a corner case.
