Package: kernel-image-2.6.9
Version: 2.6.9-2
Severity: wishlist

Please consider applying the inotify patches from here:

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/rml/inotify/v2.6/

This is a re-working of the dnotify API which doesn't suck, and is very
useful.  It should be entering the kernel at some point but the more
testing it gets, the better.

Thanks,
Ross
