Today's first 2.6.30-rc8 build for VIA NetBooks is posted.
Details at:

- - summary - -

This is the kernel.org repository tag: 2.6.30-rc8 codebase ***without*** local patches;
Using the same configuration as the record holding (-09149), variable speed kernel.

The -09149 announcement is at:
http://forum.netbookuser.com/viewtopic.php?pid=7002#p7002
(Note: that build had local patches.)

I have also re-posted the record holding (-09143lk), fixed speed build, see above links.
