Not "wrong" exactly, but not "best" either. Look in the MAINTAINERS file of a recent kernel source tree, look for references to NFS, and see if any mailing lists are suggested. You should find nfs@lists.sourceforge.net

The client side support for nfs/tcp is all there in late 2.2.18 pre-patches, and patches for earlier kernels are available. See http://nfs.sourceforge.net for details. Client side support is also in 2.4.0 test releases.
The server side is much less mature. I believe that when 2.2.18 comes out it will have nfs/tcp server as a 'experimental' compile time options. Much of the same code is in 2.4.0-testX, but I don't think the compile time option is there, you need to edit the code to enable it.
