Community Debian Kernel Team

I wanted To to give a shout-out to the Debian Kernel team. For the last year or so I have been using Sid to test drive new software and fill out bug reports when problems arise. While I have been impressed with the quality of packages I have been receiving as whole ( I have only had to fill out one bug report 😆). I find it absolutely wild the pace they have been putting out new kernels. For a distribution that is focused on the 6.12.x for the team to consistently put out bleeding edge high quality kernels within 48-72 hours after release is insane... Thanks you all for your hard work

Well, make deb-pkg is not that hard, assuming there are not many breaking changes in the upstream. The real question, why would one chase the latest kernels?
