Hearty agreement from me.

The next hurdle for 2.6.11-stable is to make sure that everything that
went into it goes into 2.6.12.  Is there a procedure for that?


Other way around.  In order to be accepted into -stable, it needs to
already have been accepted into mainline.  More information at
http://kerneltrap.org/node/4827/54751

It's more complex than that, because -stable allows simple fixes while a complex fix or even total rethink may be in mainline. I'm personally happy with that, although I don't know if it has actually happened.
