When was it that you noticed gentoo-sources being that far behind. Generally-speaking vanilla-sources and gentoo-sources tend to be updated within a day or two of a new stable kernel release. Now, stable keywords on gentoo-sources tends to track longterm kernels, so that will be behind ~arch by a few weeks. Maybe if you caught somebody on vacation I could see gentoo-sources lagging a bit, or if there was some debate over whether to include some patch in it... -- Rich
