But we don't. 0.99.14, for example, is noticeably missing from the list ---
and I remember 0.99.14 very well because it was the first kernel that was
stable enough for production use by most then Linuxers, marred only by small
issues such as (IIRC) ATI and S3 video cards vs. COM4. And it's right smack
in the middle of the list of released kernels.
