Would it be possible to put the kernel version number (2.6.12.3) into the 'LATEST-IS-VERSION' file on http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ or, is there some other file that traditionally has stored this info? I searched the repository but could not find one. As of now, my script goes to the site and parses the page searching for a line that contains 'LATEST-IS' and then breaks that line apart and attempts to extract the kernel version number from it. If LATEST-IS-VERSION actually contained the version number (2.6.12.3) instead of being a 0 byte file as it is now, then it my script could simply read it and not have to do funky html parsing to get the latest version number ;) Thank you all.
