This is *very* good news, as the kernel 2.6.26 includes many
enhancements and the kernel 2.6.27 makes my wireless stick USB work
again on x86-64 (at least, since it stopped working during the 2.6.26
release cycle and it was a pain to debug with the developer of the
rt2x00 drivers) and I want to get rid of MacOS X on my iBook G3 (I'm
doing bug triaging on Debian too).

A very nice piece of news here, indeed.

That will be a nice birthday gift :-), even though I think that I
will download a daily image earlier than that.
