+	  Maintaining a net driver in my day job, plus core networking

+	  Debian kernel team member, now doing most of the unstable

+      Linux is released about 5 times a year (plus stable updates
+      every week or two)
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      For 'wheezy' we chose to freeze with Linux 3.2, which was
+      getting pretty old by the time of release
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Good news: we have lots of new kernel features in testing/unstable
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Bad news: some of them won't really work without new userland

+  <h1>Team device driver [3.3]</h1>
+  <ul class="incremental">
+    <li>
+      Alternative to the bonding driver - simpler, modular, high-level
+      control deferred to userland
+    </li>
+    <li>
+      Basic configuration can be done with <tt>ip</tt>, but it really
+      needs new tools - <tt>teamd</tt>, <tt>teamnl</tt>, etc.
