Or more precisely: which are the "stable" versions I can depend on for
a more or less critical server, those that have active security
support or receive at least critical bugfixes? I know about the
2.6.2[34].y stable git trees, but I wonder how long will those receive
attention (that is, security fixes). Can I find a written policy
somewhere?
I would say:
a) the kernel your distro provides,
b) if you're not using a kernel provided by your distribution, the
newest kernel from kernel.org (there are some older, still maintaned
kernels with security fixes, too).
