I'm actually waiting for 3.19 at this point. If you look at the patch
series I sent out last week, we were busy working on developer
experience patches and integrating LTSI content.

There's also another activity to get linux-yocto-dev glued fully into
the autobuilder to shake out bugs before I push the changes to the
the main repositories.

Generally speaking, I don't merge each and every korg kernel into the
development branches, with a one kernel jump after we do a release
with a kernel (which in this case 3.17 comes with Yocto 1.8). And
that is simply to allow the existing set of three kernels to settle
before refreshing features, moving into another round of development
and preparation for the next release kernel.

Cheers,

Bruce
