Hello All , Is anyone looking at making 2.6.39.* into a longterm

No, why would they?

Or, to turn it the other way, why do you feel .39 would be a viable
longer kernel to maintain? What are you using it for that requires it
to be handled in this manner?

Probably no reason at all , But ... It is the final 2.6 kernel version .

With 3.0 being released there will only be Yours & the others maintaining the 2.6.<39 otherwise .

Ego I guess .

Thank you for responding .
