I would suggest you maintain your own kernel version, since you're so 
obviously more competent at it than we are. 

Then, when you inevitably show your superiority, people will start using 
your version of the kernel. That's the point of open source, after all. It 
keeps us all honest - at any point, we can be overtaken by somebody 
better.

I've actually been waiting for this moment for over fifteen years now: 
finding that person who can take over so that I don't have to bother any 
more. I'll continue to do my own maintenance in parallel while you get up 
to speed, but I expect that everybody will have dropped my feeble efforts 
soon enough, so you can probably just ignore that. 

Thanks,

		Linus
