I noticed there was no 2.6.22 kernel in the last round and was wondering if you were going to switch to the 2.6.23 kernel?

Why not 2.6.24-rc? Very Happy

In any case, first of all is stability. OpenVZ team can't spend all their time on checking and bugfix'ing mainstream kernel. So all this versions (2.6.20,22 etc) is very development, and main target, as I think, is to integrate OpenVZ code with mainstream. But for production is more preferable to use, for example, redhat based kernel. Redhat fix mainstream bugs, add drivers support and some sort of features, and OpenVZ team tracking only their project.

The right question, which you could ask is "What next stable version of OpenVZ kernel?" or "What kernel will use the next Redhat realese?" Smile
