I'd say that stable and devel are running different protocols... I
can't say for hn's except that they are probably essentially the same
only with enhancements/fixes.

Well....  Last it was brought up I think it was stated it would be
pretty doubtful that it would ever be excepted...  Outside of that,
coLinux is in it's infancy.  We have a LOT to work out before it's
really anything close to something that should be considered main-line
kernel ready.  Aligning stuff with UML/XEN/etc isn't a bad idea by any
means.  Any aligning we can do that allows us to share/use
features/code from those others is a good thing... I would think.
