It is not that simple.  The 2.6.26 kernel has _problems_ that impact
real time users (like us audio users).

Personally I would keep work as usual.  If the release is not suitable
for production then say so, and we can stay at hardy for our production
machines until Intrepid or its successor is ready.  I do _not_ favour
shipping a .26 kernel, but if there is time for a point release with a
.27 or whatever is appropriate at that time then that would be my first
choice.

Very little that can be done here.  Talk to your vendor about it.  There
are coders who would love to do the work, but they need a few things
from the company.  Point them to the following link if possible:
