Mails for the current stable-releases get out there -- e.g. I received a
"Linux kernel 2.6.22.3 released" not that long ago (that particular one
was broken, but that's another story mentioned somewhere else on LKML
already).
If just seems that 2.6.21.x (or 2.6.20.x or 2.6.16.x) don't get
mentioned on the list because some script likely does a check like this:
if 2.6.22.3 > 2.6.20.16;
then
# don't send mail
exit
fi

I tend to think it's a script that runs on a server site somewhere to
generates those mails, as they contain the text:
This is an automatically generated message. To unsubscribe from this
list, please send a message to [email protected] containing
the line: [...]
But maybe I'm wrong with that assumption...

To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in
the body of a message to [email protected]
