Just a few days ago i downloaded the 2.6.16.2 kernel and today i saw there is a new kernel version, 2.6.16.5, which is 3 version beyond the current version that was applied in my system. But when i saw the changelog, it only consist of small updates (1 up to 2 patches), so i'm not going to upgrade to those kernel (i think it's not worthed, since some of them are not related to my system and i'm not affected for now. Most of them are patches for X86_64 platform). I know i like bleeding-edge packages, but if i compared to the time needed to compile the new kernel and the patches i got, i think is not worthed at all.
Well, i always see the changelog in kernel.org to see whether new kernel is available and see if i need the upgrade or not.
