and with the finger_banner and version info on www.kernel.org page?

They currently say:

The latest stable version of the Linux kernel is:           2.6.19.1
The latest prepatch for the stable Linux kernel tree is:    2.6.20-rc3
The latest snapshot for the stable Linux kernel tree is:    2.6.20-rc3-git4
The latest 2.4 version of the Linux kernel is:              2.4.34
The latest 2.2 version of the Linux kernel is:              2.2.26
The latest prepatch for the 2.2 Linux kernel tree is:       2.2.27-rc2
The latest -mm patch to the stable Linux kernels is:        2.6.20-rc2-mm1


but there are 2.6.20-rc3-git[567] and 2.6.20-rc3-mm1 out there,
so when is the finger version info updated?
