I'll take that as a tentative no. ;) Still plenty of room for everyone else! Maybe someone wants a few more buildds? ;) >> We need to figure out the patches for experimental too.

I'm getting it down to a repeatable art form, if not a science. Right now I just download everything from Geert's quilt file and rewrite it as a debian series file. Usually this works okay, but I have to remember to use the right set of patches for the right kernel. It's certainly not an elegant procedure. :) -- Stephen R.
