IMHO it is a BUG that we don't have linux version in
http://codex.sourcemage.org/listing.html
According to http://www.kernel.org/ "The latest stable version of the
Linux kernel is: 2.6.22.6" so we should mention 2.6.22.6 in our listing.
It is LATEST_maintenance_patches= from latest.defaults file. So small
script can cut it.

Another BUG is our listing at
http://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=sourcemage
Not only missing Linux version but ati_driver, beryl, compiz, dosbox,
jre, NVIDIA, opera, pine, xorg-server, ...
It is not interesting for users we have them in xorg-modular, z-rejected
grimoire.
They should be mentioned there.
