Yeah, I have thought about that myself, but I still think it makes sense. My rough plan is to automatically kick building rc kernels, so it shouldn't take to long from release upstream till it it's in reach of potential users. > I really appreciate the vanilla repos, so hopefully this isn't a huge > issue for you. I'd like to see those continue on as you find time, etc. Thanks and don't worry, I think I have enough things automated/scripted now, so it's not to much work to maintaining that repo. Thus I really hope to find enough time to not get stuck again, as it happened on the first try a few months ago… CU knurd _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
