The kernel patch itself might actually be workable enough

I'd rather it not be removed from unstable (the only thing it's in,
after all), but mainly because I'd rather not have to go through the NEW
queue again when I feel the 2.6 patches/userspace are suitable to
package for unstable.
Sounds like this should be in experimental instead.
I suppose if Micah just can't stand it I could package and upload the
2.6 stuff soon, but I'd rather wait till it's a bit more
developed/stable.
I'm not sure if uploading something that is *more* alpha is the right
way to go.
I'm not sure what you mean by "if Micah just can't stand it", but I'm
detecting some hostility and provocation. I meant no hostility at all in
submitting this, I am sorry if it came across that way, and I apologize
if you felt I was acting that way, I must have not communicated
affectively.
I only reported this bug after doing secure-testing work, finding the
security problem in the package, speaking to you about it following
through on the conversation by asking debian-QA their thoughts. You made
it clear that you weren't interested in maintaining the package and
didn't see the need to even file for its removal or adoption and even
suggested that I do so myself, indeed my interpretation was that you
felt that anyone other than you should do it since you couldn't be bothered.
This isn't about what I can or can't stand, its about what Debian users
can stand and what QA can stand. It seemed the right thing to do after
your comments, the debian-QA approval, and the security problem. I'm
sorry if doing so has caused you consternation, I was sincerely not
trying to do so.
Micah, it's appreciated when making such type of requests to
X-Debbugs-Cc the maintainer in question.
Aww, but then I'd get to comment on it and I might ruin his little
vendetta/pity party.
Your implication that I avoided adding that tag on purpose in order to
sneak around your comments is an interesting accusation, and I'm sorry
if anything I've said has caused you to assume that I have dont this out
of a "vendetta/pity party" (not sure what that means), but I can tell
you truthfully that it was not done to subvert your comments, it was
simply not appended out of my own ignorance that it existed.
