+====== kernel-autobuild / annoucement on vserver list ======
+  > Hi folks,
+  >
+  > facing debian discontinuing linux vserver kernel packets we thought of
+  > building kernels ourselves - resp. let them get built automatically.
+  >
+  > We came up with a tool, that
+  > - determines
+  >   - kernel source code version
+  >   - vserver patch code version
+  > - downloads them
+  > - applies the vserver patch
+  > - applies a .config from the last build
+  > - runs "make oldconfig" and acknowleges the proposed defaults
+  > - compiles the kernel
+  > - builds the kernel-package
+  > - sets up a virtual machine using kvm and squeeze
+  > - install the new kernel package
+  > - runs some tests [0]
+  >   - boot
+  >   - check ip connectivity
+  >   - create lvm2 pv, vg, lv
+  >   - more to come (iptables, ...)
+  > - builds a meta package for easy updating
+  > - uploads the packages to our repository
+  >
+  > So, if basic tests fail, no kernel packages are provided.
+  > We are very well aware of the pitfalls this simple process
+  > may include and so should you :-)
