I try and keep an eye on the git repo for it and do releases whenever something important/interesting comes along. I knew we needed the intel firmware update, but I hadn't checked in a while. I'll get an update together later today. It would be nice if upstream actually did releases, but at this point I've given up on that entirely. josh _______________________________________________ kernel mailing list [email protected] https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel
