Wouldn't the out-of-sync kernel also mean security issues?
I'm pretty sure that quite some people use ubuntu studio as general
purpose system as well, so that would be an issue.
How about: shipping -generic until there is a .27-rt and
provide the out-of-sync kernel as option in a ppa.
It would be great if the .27-rt would be able to automagically replace
the ppa version.
I haven't tested those kernels yet, and while it is said that more and
more rt-stuff goes into the generic kernel word is out that .26 is
pretty bad for audio and midi.
It would be good to hear some hands-on experience from people who
already test intrepid.

Philipp
