Beast and I are good then… Greg Kroah-Hartman has nominated 3.10 for long term support.
“I’m picking this kernel after spending a lot of time talking about kernel releases, and product releases and development schedules from a large range of companies and development groups. I couldn’t please everyone, but I think that the 3.10 kernel fits the largest common set of groups that rely on the longterm kernel releases.”

see Longterm kernel 3.10.

This is cool! I have found not a single problem in nearly a year of using Greg’s releases. I just build them and they work. Wouldn’t it be lovely if all FLOSS projects ran as smoothly?
