Actually, I think we should switch GENERIC in HEAD to the new client and kernel very soon. The goal is to get current users testing the new client and server so they can uncover any bugs. If problems crop up during the testing that can't be resolved, we can always revert to the older client/server for the release. -- John Baldwin
