Linux 2.6.15-rc6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Ok,
 there it is. 
 
Slightly delayed by me being away for a week, and now Andrew is gone, but 
looking at the changes, they all seem to be pretty trivial, so we're on 
well track for doing the final 2.6.15 this year, I think. People have 
probably already started over-feeding with the holidays just around the 
corner.

The shortlog really says it all. Apart from some sparse annotations from 
Al, it's all random small things. But do give it a try, because Santa 
Claus has his CIA spooks checking y'all out, and naughty people don't get 
any of the loot.
