A similar question:
	Back in the day (pre -Linux-2.4.4) ;)  namesys.com used to update you with 
the new set of patches for a particular kernel version.  It doesn't do this 
anymore (at least it appears this way).  Does anyone know if the new reiserfs 
patches (particularly for nfs) are already included in the latest 2.4.7 
kernel?
