If you're agreeable, I would very much prefer to continue with the 
stable update model that you've developed by committing to the 
linux-2.6.32.y and linux-3.2.y branches in 
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git. 
The mailing list review process as well as the policies regarding patch 
suitability are working well.
