It would be nice to have a release of ivtv that will match what is in the kernel, so we can compare later on w/o having something like 0.4.1 < 2.6.15 < 0.6.0. And if we want to tag whatever lands in the kernel as stable, then it should be a 0.6.x release. OTOH if only some parts make it into 2.6.15 then we should still have a release, but we could label it 0.5.x. It would be nice though to have a release that will still build on kernels <= 2.6.15, e.g. if some or all helpers have moved to the kernel to keep a copy in the release. -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net
