Read release notes.
Comment 2 Ulrich Seidl 2004-11-17 07:57:24 UTC 
I am not willing to build a kernel just to get the sources. This is a
stupid and rather user-unfriendly policy. I do not like this policy.
Think I will switch to SUSE Linux.

Release Notes are not clear and appear to be in error.  Please either
clarify Rel Notes (examples are "COOL") or put the files back in.  Thanx!
