Hi there,
There are rumors that the next version number of the Linux Kernel is going to be 3.0. Since we choosed 'kernel26' as the package name, we will have to modify it anyway. Why not just 'linux 3.0'? Just an idea.. since we have the fellow project 'Arch Hurd' providing 'hurd' as an alternative different kernel already.
Best, Bernardo
When the rumours are over and linux is going to release his first rc1, then it would make sense to rename kernel26 to linux3.0. Except that the lts version will be still kernel26-lts, so maybe kernel3.0 would be better. I'm sure Tobias will come up with a nice solution :)

Heh, yes, in the end Tobias will give us a great solution. I imagine he has long had plans for how to handle this!
