The word on 2.1.5 has been that it will offer improvement on the
"rock-stable performance" advertised on the 2.1R liner notes...
so to see the supposed BETA's successor say of it "a few decidedly
fatal kernel bugs were found" is not too confidence-building...
will 2.1.5R really have a lower bug content than 2.1R?
