[ALUG] How soon will 2.6.18 kernel appear in stable releases?

[cl at isbd.net]

As per the title - how soon do the 'main' distributions tend to offer
ready made upgrades to the latest (currently 2.6.18) kernel?  ... and
having asked that which of Mandriva, Ubuntu and Suse is likely to
offer it first?

Being lazy I'd prefer not to have to compile my own kernel though I
have done it before.
