That's fine, though maybe we should consider calling it 2.6.22-2. If 
our releases are actually pegged to kernel releases, then why not 
say what we mean? Saying 2007.08 for a release made in 2007.10 is 
misleading.

That said, I don't care that much. There's *way* too much going on 
right now in Arch land to spend time painting bikesheds!
