See attachment for the source code.

I took a look at some alternative methods, and the best one I could come
up with is processing the download folder for the stable 2.6 kernels and
patches ( http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/ ). It shouldn't
be hard to implement this for just the base kernel and stable patch
retrieval.

You can still parse http://www.kernel.org/kdist/version.html , but I
recommend only using it to retrieve linux-next, snapshot and mainline
kernel information.
