That would be great ...
Does the reiser team often modifies the kernel tree (other than the reiser4
code, off course), so that it would be possible to release a patch against
the latest 2.5 kernel ? We'd then just have to download a reiser4-kernel
daily snapshot that we would include in the kernel source tree, and then
just configure & compile the whole stuff. And maybe bk could automate both
process : making a daily (or nightly :D) kernel patch and reiser kernel
package, this will be the way for users and administrators to test your
software without having to handle with bk ;)

Now it's all right ... but you'll hopefully have to change it again soon, if
these daily snapshots are made available ;)
