I don't get it. My mirror of ftp.debian.org, up-to-date as of last
night,
is a mirror of "development", which is a link to rex. Isn't the
now-frozen
1.2 a snapshot of rex taken on monday? My mirror still has kernel 2.0.6:

  lrwxrwxrwx    1 rickm         55 Jul 23 05:30
kernel-headers-2.0.6_2.0.6-0.deb ->
../../binary-all/devel/kernel-headers-2.0.6_2.0.6-0.deb
  lrwxrwxrwx    1 rickm         54 Jul 23 05:30
kernel-source-2.0.6_2.0.6-0.deb ->
../../binary-all/devel/kernel-source-2.0.6_2.0.6-0.deb

Where is 2.0.23, and what does it mean to say that 1.2 has it when rex
doesn't?
