I believe replacing "Debian kernels" with "kernels by the kernel-team" 
in the sentence above is more to the point.

And that such adjustment clarifies the controversy lurking here: Manoj 
cares about packaging kernels.  Max cares about the kernel-team 
packaging kernels.



It seems this bug has stranded at the wrong spot: Max got away with a 
false[1] statement and Manoj is obviously never going to update 
kernel-package documentation base don it.
