I assume that at some point in the future development-sources and gentoo-dev-sources will become 2.7, and vanilla-sources and gentoo-sources will move to 2.6. It'd be nice when this happens to have something for people who don't want to upgrade, and only want to build security/bug fixes that will surely be coming out for 2.4 for years to come. If we're going to have vanilla-2.4, and/or gentoo-sources-2.4 at that point anyways... May aswell work out ahead of time how it will be laid out. It's not really that critical though. For the most part people who want 2.6 now now now are perfectly capable of running off and rolling their own, and probably are already running something like mm or love-sources anyways. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
