I'm cool w/ that.

 The decision needs to be communicated to Debian developers in general
 (d-d-a) and to Greg Kroah-Hartman in his capacity as organiser of
 stable/longterm series.  If we go with 3.2 then we will also want to
 work closely with the Ubuntu kernel maintainers.

Despite my initial preference to go with 3.3/3.4 I think that's
the best option. There's nothing mouth-watering in 3.3 and the
time frame between the release of 3.2 and the Wheezy release will
be similar to the interval between 2.6.32 and Squeeze.

Cheers,
Moritz

Probably a little shorter, in fact:

Linux 2.6.32 release: 2009-12-03
Debian 6.0 release:   2011-02-06 (14 months)

Linux 3.2 release:2012-01-05
Debian 7.0 release:   est. 2012-12 or 2013-01 (~12 months)
