When you get commitment to a fixed hardware configuration for two years and you want to leave your datacenter full of hosts ready to power up and play off a custom CDROM, a release that uses a custom kernel is desirable. That said, I don't think that the release should pick up KERNCONF. I think a middle-ground option is to have the release pick up RELEASE_KERNCONF. Ciao, Sheldon.
