Ok, this is a mess, so we probably need to hold a little flamewar about how we
want the tree organized or something, before we start moving stuff back and
fort.

I believe that the trunk is for main development, and it is important that we
keep the version we are actually using in trunk, and not the next version as
the linux-2.6.13-rcsomething.

Also, i am not overly convinced about the branch stuff, especially for main
branches where we are going to work on, and not some obscure stuff only some
will want to play with.

Furthermore, now that the kernel subdir is going to be emptied of its content,
in favour of the single linux-2.6 package, we could as well move linux-2.6
into the toplevel.

So, my proposal was to have :

/trunk/linux-2.6 <- main 2.6 kernel being uploaded to sid
/trunk/linux-2.6-experimental <- the experimental version.

If some prefer to keep an additional directory level, please provide arguments
in favour of it, (and please something less cryptic than : "Move back, there
is more than one unstable package in it", which can be interpreted any random
way, possibly as offensive stuff also).

The other branches we have here are the sarge ones, which are in
branches/sarge and co, but we could also have them directly at toplevel while
they are active or something.

So, let's get our act together on this, discuss it and decide in a reasonable
fashion, and then move them to their final place, and not this silent renaming
of the sid main branch into the experimental thingy.

Friendly,
