Absolutely.  I approve of this policy, and I was attempting to point out a
flaw in the anti-2.96 movement.  They claim that 2.96 is bad because it isn't
an official release, but they don't have a problem with non-official kernel
releases and the like.  There's nothing wrong with not using an official
release -- in some ways, that's what open source is all about!
