Note: This IS very important for people in CS. This is the real life and advanced stuff in the same time. CS will need to understand this in the future.
I have one linux 2.2.13 15000 kilometers away from me. The stability of this box is very important for me, because my familly uses it to contact me.
What I am going to do now? I am compiling the new kernel 2.2.14 on this box 15000 km away and I am going to install it as default kernel. But I am not going to reboot it!!! The next reboot new kernel will start, but for now I will continue to enjoy uptime and clean kern.log
There are no important bugs and exploits in 2.2.13 and I don't see a reason to boot in 2.2.14 for now, but I will be ready with it.
And I am not sorry about this. Most of the time even Debian *unstable* is rock stable. I can compare my impression about Debian unstable to my impressions about RedHat stable.
I think Corel linux will be great for Debian because it will give more beginners the option to try Debian and get used to it. Probably later they will select the real Debian, because this is a real thing.
BTW, Upgrading from Corel linux to Debian should be very painless.
I am waiting for some real cool things like FreeBSD based Debian and HURD based Debian. And after FreeBSD, I am sure NetBSD and OpenBSD will be given a try in Debian!

Then if you want to have hot swapable kernels, I think you have to pray for HURD.
In HURD it will be possible to replace almost all the kernel without reboot.
It IS one OS.
The binary and even more important source compatibility must be preserved, but in the future there will be Debian with non-linux kernels.
And think in this way: Why should there be one OS? Where goes the diversity of ideas?
