Well the old packages were fine as far as version monotonicity was concerned. It was rejected because the RM thought that the epoch would cause people too much grief (something that I don't entirely agree with). Is it convenient for you to wait until this weekend? Because I have a hunch that 2.2.18 might be out soon so it may not be worthwhile spending a whole lot of effort recompiling kernel images for all architectures straight away.

If you really need it straight away, I can give you a kernel source and half of the i386 images tomorrow night my time (+1100). And if Randolph, Brian are around, we can probably have something ready by Friday. But as I said, it may be wise to wait until the weekend to see if there are any developments on the 2.2.18 front. -- Debian GNU/Linux 2.2 is out!
