That is what I said ....

2.5.1 Semi-stable kernel, after bio is working.
2.5.2-pre1 Add the kbuild 2.5 and CML2 code, still using
Makefile-2.5, supporting both CML1 and CML2.
2.5.2-pre2 Remove kbuild 2.4 code, rename Makefile-2.5 to Makefile.
Still supporting both CML1 and CML2.
2.5.2-pre3 Remove CML1 support.

Is that timetable acceptable?
