Sorry this was an overreach - Greg didn't say that :)

I mean Greg asked if anybody uses nommu, the answer is yes, but the real
question I think is 'is anybody using a very recent kernel who couldn't either
use an older one or maintain a downstream kernel'.

And to that I think the answer is absolutely not.

And if the answer were yes - you must surely be a company with a product
(security concerns on a nommu system is a debatable concept) - and then you need
to put up or shut up IMO.
