Well I do know at least some of the things that depend on experimental are legitimate. I wonder if the problem is that we don't police experimental well enough. > Currently CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=n would cost a distribution a three digit > number of device drivers plus several features like e.g. NFSv4. I can see a distribution carefully cherry picking things, that the have an intimate knowledge about out of experimental but it doesn't sound right for taking things out of EXPERIMENTAL to be routine. I know I'm a little slow about getting around to it but when ever I have a feature that isn't EXPERIMENTAL anymore I remove the tag.
