      Description

      During discussions of Project Gemini, it was decided at one point to change the name of the kernel RPM from 'kernel' to 'kernel-redhat' to better identify it's uniqueness of being a different kernel than upstream.

      What SSTs and Layered Product teams should review this?

      All Layered Product teams and SSTs will have to be involved in this decision.  Work was done in QE to allow for the new 'kernel-redhat' naming and the idea was passed to other Product Teams for review.  However, with the delaying of Project Gemini, this work was never completed.
