-Title: vanilla-sources stabilization policy
-Author: Mike Pagano <mpagano@gentoo.org>
-Content-Type: text/plain
-Posted: 2013-08-07

-The Gentoo Kernel Team will no longer be providing stable
-vanilla-sources kernels. All currently stabilized vanilla-sources
-versions will be dropped to ~arch. The Arch teams, via normal requests
-of the Kernel Team, will continue to stabilize gentoo-sources kernels
-upon request. This decision is based on the facts that upstream is now
-releasing approximately 1-2 vanilla-sources kernels a week. Arch teams,
-understandably, are unable to keep up with this rate of release. As
-most vanilla releases contain security fixes, the user who only runs
-stable vanilla-sources will consistently be behind and potentially at
-risk. For the latest "upstream kernel unpatched by Gentoo", we
-recommend users add 'sys-kernel/vanilla-sources' to their
-package.accept_keywords file. gentoo-sources will continue to be a
-tested and supported version for Gentoo users.

-Note: This news item only applies to gentoo-sources and vanilla-sources.
-Other kernels currently maintained in portage have their own policies
-and procedures in place today.
