DSL Ideas and Suggestions :: Any plans for...?

Are there any plans for DSL to use the 2.6 kernel in the future? If they implemented the newest kernel and used XOrg 6.8.2 I would certainly make DSL my permanent and only distro. I love the package selection though. The default applications are great, nothing more than i need. Fluxbox rox. Keep it slim and trim, but up to date. That will get users.

Read the FAQ please.

Not realy nice to read this answer in the FAQ.
I would love to see a 2.6.x based DSL at a size of 50MB.

Why don't you compile your own 2.6.x kernel and then you wouldn't have to live without it. D-load kernel source code and read the README or NOTES file and follow the directions.
Nothing to it really. Why do you want this specific kernel anyway?

a 2.6.x based DSL at a size of 50mb would require a pile of extensions to return it to the useability of the current 2.4 DSL. It would also not support a lot of the older hardware which DSL is famous for supporting.
I don't understand what 2.6 has that makes it important to so many people...I'm using 3 distros which have *new* 2.4 kernels, and all work spendidly.
