I've been away from my desk for a few days, well other than 
occasionaly popping in on IRC. If I'm not deeply mistaken 2.6.14-3
is now out there, and was released using k-p 9.008.4. 10.00x seems
to be in pretty good shape now, unless something nasty is
lurking deeper in my INBOX. Manoj, please upload at will.
