You are absolutely right, once 2.6.30 will be out there will not be a need to compile Kernel modules.
About the binary package. I must admit I'm a total novice. What do I need to do?
One x86_32, one x86_64? What glibc, does it matter what distro I compile on?
I want to have a "make rpm" and "make deb" but I've never done that, I was hoping someone more experienced would pick it up.
But you are right I have it on my schedule to work on the Wiki, installation and init-scripts, right after this final push to mainline.
Sorry, for not having this already Boaz
BTW: Source tar balls are available from the gitweb GUI by pressing on the "snapshot" link next to any commit. I should link to it from the WiKi
Best regards Boaz
