The primary aim of the kernel patch distribution system is to reduce the stupidly huge bandwidth load on kernel.org as much as possible. I don't think that's an issue here, so what they do isn't really relevant. I presume your goal is to maximise convinience for people who aren't using vendor packages, so the question is: what are these people going to be doing? Not being one of them, I'm not really sure. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
