I like the idea a lot, I think it is needed and I would be running such kernels but I am not sure I would really participate(other then grabbing the source for a mamona kernel). Following the corporate discussion I think this would be a good place to experiment. allowing "us" to request a kernel module against a certain kernel certainly makes scene (can't this be done using the new autobuilder)? > Some of them could be merged to mainline or Nokia kernel but many of > them are just quick hacks of debatable value and correctness with little > chance of merging to some official tree. > > Maybe some public GIT tree would be better but I'm not familiar with > GIT.
