I'll start spinning them up then.
For 2.6.32, I'm used to backport 3.0 material and sometimes to ask for some help when I feel uneasy. There are a few things in the queue now and I intend to make a new release "soon". I can happily wait for the leapsecond fixes to be merged into other stable branches first. If you think the backport should be easy, don't waste your time with it, at worst I'll ping you if I can't do it. Otherwise if you think it's easy only for you, then your patches would be much appreciated, so it's up to you :-) Thanks!
