    that's quite a lot of features for a sub release. I especially like the centrino drivers, I guess I'll give it a try. :)

    It's being kept out for insane political reasons. There are too big egos here, probably hans as well as the kernel developers, but they're the noticeable ones. I'm starting to think the kernel devs don't care about the users.
