Hi again I assume that you are very busy, but did my reasoning makes sense or do I have to do in some other way in order to get the package to testing?
I also want to know if you will accept 2.6.18-8 of the linux kernel as you have to accept a not yet existing version to testing then. I do not want to upload the new version to unstable until you have decided if you will accept this fix or not.
