In order to not get in trouble with MADR ("Mothers Against Drunk
Releases") I decided to cut the 2.6.20-rc3 release early rather than wait
for midnight, because it's bound to be new years _somewhere_ out there. So
here's to a happy 2007 for everybody.
The big thing at least for me personally is that nasty shared mmap
corruption fix, but there's a number of other changes in here, many of
them just documentation (and some media and network drivers). Shortlog and
diffstat appended..
The git trees have been updated, and the tar-tree and patches seem to have
finisged crawling out my poor DSL connection too.
As usual, mirroring might take a while, although the delay has not been
all that horrible lately, so it's probably going to be up-to-date by the
time the hangovers are mostly gone.
At which point the first thing on any self-respecting geek's mind should
obviously be: "is there a new kernel release for me to try?"
Right?
Linus
