Yes, I realise all of this. But everyone seems to get this damned
territorial attitude that I want to see kernel development stopped, quite
the opposite. All I want to see is a stable target for certain windows of
time. So that way when bugs are fixed that are trivial there's a place to
go without upgrading scads of userland stuff or worrying about lots of
unrelated change.
