Thanks & congrats!

I'm building packages for RHEL and FC as appropriate, they will land
in atrpms-testing.

If it wouldn't be a too big issue I would recommend using the same
versioning throughout all supported kernels. I think it makes the
users' handling easier, as well as for people reviewing the code,
e.g. it is easier to review some conditionals based on kernel versions
than to have several trees.

It also makes packaging far more easier, as the userland portions
remain in the same versioned subpackage, even if people have both
2.6.18 and 2.6.19 kernels and ivtv kernel subpackages installed.
