I've already submitted a bug against kernel-image-2.0.36 (with patch)
about that.

Well, if *everyone* waits until testing is done, that testing will *never*
be done. Remember, you need the last (latest) version before you can test
it. Additionally, most of the ISDN cards sold the last 6 months are only
supported by the ISDN code in 2.0.36; this is not a simple case of wanting
the latest version number, it is a *significant* improvement.
Whether 2.0.36 should be the standard kernel in slink or only available
as an option (like 2.0.33 and 2.0.34 were in hamm (I think)), is another
topic.
