Hello,
The "Latest Stable Kernel" on the main page of www.kernel.org is 2.6.11.2 and
this is of course right.
But people who want to apply an -rc patch, or some other patchsets (e.g. -ck)
want 2.6.11. They can currently get it only by browsing directories.
Perhaps, to enable easier usage of such patchsets, a "latest Base kernel link"
should be added to the kernel.org main page? This would be the latest three
point release. Of course it should be below "stable", as "stable" is the
default choice.

I agree with you. Having the base kernel up there would be nice. Also it
seems that the -bk snapshots against the base are no longer easily
retrievable from the kernel.org frontpage any more - personally I miss
those.
