all know, Debian 6.0.x is still using the old Linux Kernel 2.6.

Kernel 3.x is just a naming marketing strategy, indeed it's 2.6.40.
Anyway, there's a kernel 3.2 available in the backports.

When will Debian 7.0 be released?

AFAIK, it will be frozen in ~June, released... nobody knows, that's a
feature.

Debian with Linux Kernel 3.x release seems very slow when all the other
Linux distros already have the latest Linux Kernel 3.x. Why do I want
Linux Kernel 3.x? Because I want to play around with Xen virtualization
(dom0 required).

You can go to "www.kernel.org", download the greatest and latest 3.3
(still in devel branch) and compile by yourself using your current kernel
".config" file.

Debian developers, please speed up!

Please don't, keep things stable and take your time :-)

I love Ubuntu and Debian Linux!!!

From your last posts to the list, nobody would have said it...
