4.15 is end-of-life so there's no 4.15.19 release and it's time to move on to 4.16.
However, we failed at community collaboration with this project so we're going to be approaching it differently. We'll be switching to maintaining only what we need and funding development work.

We'll rebase onto each mainline tag (v4.16, v4.17, v4.18) with stable tags ignored and without our own releases for those. Not going to be developing or maintaining changes outside the scope of what we need like x86 support. It'll become actively developed soon (it hasn't been).
It will still closely track LTS kernel releases with at least one of our own releases for each. However, it may make sense to switch to tracking Android common kernel releases since they're had proper stable releases published since October 2017: source.android.com/devices/archit….
Unlike kernel.org LTS branches, those receive backported security features rather than only security fixes which is a better fit even for use outside of Android.

Not sure how much longer we'll have a host OS with the Linux kernel anyway...
