Linus Torvalds has released Linux 2.6.24. "The release is out there (both git trees and as tarballs/patches), and for the next week many kernel developers will be at (or flying into/out of) LCA in Melbourne, so let's hope it's a good one. Nothing earth-shattering happened since -rc8, although the new set of ACPI blacklist entries and some network driver updates makes the diffstat show that there was more than the random sprinkling of one-liners all over the tree. But most of it really is one-liners, and mostly not very exciting ones at that."

Gentoo users, too, tend to update their kernels frequently, and the initial install of Gentoo involves compiling one's own kernel. One choice is vanilla-sources, the stock kernel.
So yeah, I like to see news about these things, and especially, I enjoy the discussion, to hear about the experiences others are having.
