OK, Linus has just put out 2.3.51, the next patch will be a pre-2.4 one. To avoid the problems we've had with slink not being 2.2, I reccomend that, even if it's not the default, we include a 2.4 /binary/ in potato. You could even put a note in the potato release notes saying you don't reccomend putting it on, but please /please/ PLEASE put potato out with a 2.4, or even pre-2.4 binary. -scott fenton
