That's really my point. 2.6.30 will be out soon so 2.6.29 will be outdated again. What is the motivation of putting this much work into a kernel that will be outdated when released and only have a shelf-life of 7 or 8 months. Is there some critical feature in there that makes 2.6.29 so much better than 2.6.27 to warrant this much effort for so little gain?
By that argument you would never update at all, because there will always be a new kernel coming along in a few months. There is also a cost to standing still, because things go out of date, and they would have to work to back-port patches for security fixes etc.
