[Shouldn't this be on debian-kernel-maint?] Thanks Bastian. Now, I'd like to create a process for tracking non-security changes for incorporation in etch point releases. My personal preference is to use usertags: bts user [email protected] , usertag NNNNNN dkt-pending-etch-update Any bug that is of severity important or higher is a candidate for a stable update. Of course, the stable release team needs to approve each one. I would suggest that we track each issue via a bug report and only add a fix to svn once the bug report has been approved by the SRM team. As for svn, how about we move sid/linux-2.6 to etch/linux-2.6 now, and start a etch-security branch? Or is the convention that we should leave it under sid/ until it has been superseded in sid? -- dann frazier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
