I'm a dvb tester (and newbie developer now) for Twinhan card. I use my *only* home machine for dvb so I'm not really thrilled at the idea of using -rc kernel. If CVS requires -rc kernel, I'll wait for this kernel to be available as source kernel in debian unstable distro before updating my CVS directories. If you go along with requiring -rc kernel (hoping this kind of requirement will happen only every now and then), please use an explicit tag in CVS so I'll be able to know easily when a new revision will not work with my stable kernel. (or tag the latest version working with stable 2.6.x) Cheers
