Thinking about it some more, it would probably be better if lm-sensors
2.10.7 was released before kernel 2.6.26. And kernel 2.6.26 could be
released soon, as we're at RC7 already. So maybe the following schedule
would be better:

* June 25th: SVN freeze
* June 26th-30th: testing
* July 1st: release

This is admittedly tight but OTOH there's little activity on this
legacy branch so I do not expect much problems (and I doubt a looser
schedule would help find more bugs anyway.)

Phil, would that be OK with you? I can do the release if you are busy
but you're still the one signing the 2.10.x packages.

Thanks,
