Then feel free to bash me if I don&#8217;t respond in our user&#8217;s best interest. I always try to do what&#8217;s best for the community and if I am slacking, it&#8217;s only due to life\/wife\/family\/job.<\/p>\n<p>The gentoo-sources team actively supports gentoo-source users. No matter the keyword state. We used to only support two versions (current release and 1 &#8211; current release). But now we support the latest upstream LTS as well.<\/p>\n<p>We would also welcome any users or devs who are interested in maintaining the kernel at Gentoo to join the team.<\/p>\n<p>Hope this helps clarify things, always feel free to reach out to me.<\/p>\n<p>Mike<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let&#8217;s talk about kernel releases, the latest two kernel vulnerabilities, and what vanilla or gentoo-sources you should be running.
