Hi!
I am not evil or unsatisfied end-user by any means, it is just quite
interesting to follow today's lkml posts.

After reading "Linux 2.6.15-rc5: off-line for a week" from Torvalds it
seems like this:.

a) Torvalds thinks that nobody cares about kernel testing
b) other gurus (they are also only "on-line" testers nowadays) doesn't
feel good with development model (or at least they have no resources to
do testing [Torvalds])
c) end-users (or those who are not kernel maintainers) are directed
permanently to distros kernels and "stay away from kernel.org you
wanna-bees!"

I can't say is it good or bad but this is interesting at least. I hope
you guys keep going!

Have a nice day!
Indrek
