Ooooops :)
Having one module for kernel is great thing from maintenace point of view 
but may cause troubles from user point of view because of out of tree 
drivers and binary blobs like nvidia, broadcom, ATI/AMD which usually can 
not keep up with current major release. And we have too small 
user/hardware base to test all this stuff for compatibility. Another non 
conflicting kernel module gives an user choice what likes the most and 
when to migrate. I still have linux-2.6 installed just in case because run 
linux-3 since yesterday and I'm not sure yet if I found and fixed all 
incompatibilities.

Irc is great but do not have time. Sorry. I put my time 99% on coding and 
testing 1% for talking on ML. This way is the most beneficial to Lunar.

have a nice day,
