Subject: Re: Reg the next LTS kernel (6.1?)

Please reconsidrer using 6.1 as the next LTS.

6.0 or 5.19 is much more fitting due to not having Rust support, a
major  change. A lot of the community is hesitant on how Rust will
work and it would be nice to have a non-Rust capable LTS besides 5.15
since that is already one year old. Having a more recent non-Rust
capable LTS would make the transition more smooth as it provides a
couple years for those of us that are hesitant to see if it goes down
well or who knows, gets ejected altogether.

Thank you for your consideration,

Carl
