So?  The delay mentioned doesn't impact the CentOS kernels at all.
Features will be backported when he releases 2.6.3X, err, 3.0 as needed.

People that are interested in following kernel developments have a
wealth of resources on the net to make use of, both in the form of mailing
lists and also web sites, forums, etc.

There has been a great deal of off-topic noise on this list in the past few
weeks, of which this is only the most recent example.  It's becoming
more a time sink and less a useful source of information.

How about this list return to _CentOS_ _specific_ discussions?
