 2.1.* kernels are approaching to final stages.

if (2.1.88 works fine)
	{
	We can say 2.1.* kernels are stable on a server.
	This is an advantage to Linux world.
	}
else	/* Something is wrong. */
	{
	We'll report the problem. And give a chance to fix it before
	2.2.0 release.
	This is also an advantage to Linux world
	}

How do you think?
