I think that could be a good idea anyway, because that would tell us what set of patches they found to be stable, but unfortunately, they don't at the moment. So nobody knows what's in without pulling regularly their new packages from their respective sites. > The pourpose of lkml is not only the development but also to find the > stablest kernel.

If you want to help, ask these vendors to post their errata here, associated with the bug reports, so that anyone can benefit from it.
