See: http://de.samba.org/samba/whatsnew/samba-3.0.0.html (24 > September 2003) Look in contrib (you obviously don't read the changelog list).

The majority of these issues have nothing to do with Mandrake, but the release schedule of the other projects. If you want kernel-2.6.0, go out and help fix it so it's out in time. I could request samba4, but that's not going to mean anoyone is going to do anything about it or take me seriously. Instead of discussing version numbers, maybe you would like to discuss things we actually have control over?
