Some information about keymaps on 2.6 kernels has been created at:

In due course, further information about using 2.6 kernels may get added to this page.

OpenZaurus 3.5.4 will be build by Michael ‘Mickeyl’ Lauer when we resolve all build problems. Decision who will be Release Manager are nearly taken and it looks like I (Marcin ‘Hrw’ Juszkiewicz) will be that person.
Current plans:
For testing I need voluntaries as I have only collie (sl-5500) and husky (c760) available. Such people will get access to images from 2. point but will need to provide bugreports with info what is not working (fixes welcome ofcourse). If some bugs will get fixed then new images could be created.
Decision about images other then bootstrap/opie/gpe is not yet taken - probably they won’t be released as they are not wide tested.
OpenZaurus 3.5.4 will be released with 2.4.20 kernel for SL-Cxx00 machines. After release we will prepare another release for clamshell devices (c7×0 and cxx00). This will be named 3.5.4.1 and will contain 2.6.15 kernel with ALSA sound.
UPDATE: Many people wonder why at all we are going to release OpenZaurus 3.5.4 with 2.4.20 kernel for Cxx00 instead of going to 2.6 for it. The main reason is that 2.6 support is not widely tested yet - we know that it works on spitz (sl-c3000) or borzoi (sl-c3100) but it was not so tested on akita (sl-c1000). And users have more SD/CF cards and other stuff then we can test for working.
UPDATE: Due to lot of problems with 2.4.20 on cxx00 machines we decided to not release 3.5.4 for those machines. It does not makes sense to release 3.5.4 with crappy cxx00 support and then lose again our reputation before some weeks later we could have 3.5.4.1 with proper cxx00 support.
