Once the newer kernel series come out, the newer versions |
14 |
of a series (usually) slow way down on being delivered. |

Maybe a wildcard with the kernel series name in your "world" |
17 |
file might work. |

At some point, the long kernel series revisions are usually |
21 |
only about tweaking a few given features. If that is your |
22 |
situation, dig into the kernel sources, read the docs and |
23 |
find the guy hacking on that option. Many will add additional |
24 |
testers, if you know what your are doing. |

Alternatively, run a cron job where you manually query |
28 |
the gentoo-sources can parse out what you wnat by |
29 |
kernel series number, and then mail that to yourself, |
30 |
if it is all that important.... |
