not automaticaly, the first is the debian revision.
we strip the Makefile part of the stable series
it is more kind of coincidence that current debian versions nr

for -12 we might not wait for .12 as example.

yes we merged 2.6.32.11 in 2.6.32-11 and there were no conflicts with
openvz. I would have moaned. ;)

guess the best is for your user that you keep merging in stable.
since it is easy with git to extract openvz patch. :)

BTW Ben Hutchings set up a git mirror, we will migrate to it post
squeeze release:
