1 Hi everyone,
2
3 There are some older stable hardened sources that I'd like to deprecate.
4 They have some known issues which have been fixed in later stable
5 releases. We don't back port fixes like in some other distros, so we
6 have to roll with upstream. In a sense, upstream does the backporting
7 for us with 2.6.32.

9 Can people let me know if you'd like me to keep any of the following around?
10
11 hardened-sources-2.6.32-r9.ebuild
12 hardened-sources-2.6.32-r22.ebuild
13 hardened-sources-2.6.32-r23.ebuild
14
15 hardened-sources-2.6.34-r6.ebuild
16 hardened-sources-2.6.35-r7.ebuild
17
18 I know some people found 2.6.32-r9 very stable and wanted me to keep it
19 last time I asked if I could axe it.
