I actually chose your standard linux-libre kernel from your PPA and with you having a real-time one available, that is awesome for those who want to do audio and video editing on a GNU machine.

Btw I had this idea and tell me if it sounds crazy but what if you took your skills into modifying the standard Ubuntu kernels, created libre verisons of that version, and pushed it into the main Ubuntu repositories?

That way you could use your PPAs for testing before they go into the Ubuntu repos and makes it easier and one less thing for Trisquel and other Ubuntu based libre distros to worry about.

I am guessing the packages would be like this by following the Ubuntu naming scheme:

* linux-libre
* linux-libre-generic
* linux-image-libre
* linux-headers-libre
* linux-image-libre-generic
* linux-headers-libre-generic
* linux-image-3.2.0-35-libre-generic
* linux-libre-lowlatency
* linux-image-libre-lowlatency

These are just a few, but do you think this would be worth it to push into the main Ubuntu repos? Would it be too much work? Would you only do it if you got paid? You definately have the skills and experience to create something like this.
