Re: Does kernel-source 2.2.15-3 include latest ac patches?



Hey,

Didn't 2.2.16 appear to solve some security bugs of 2.2.15? If this is the
case, even if the patches applied to 2.2.15 actually close those security
bugs, wouldn't 2.2.15 give an impression of lack of security?
I can imagine someone who read the security alert (and didn't read carefully
that the patched 2.2.15 don't have this problem) thinking that this is odd.

Well, anyhow this is just a comment. I am not a developper and I appreciate
their work. Hope they decision is the best.
