Jon,

Maybe you should publish an article about this, because I don't understand what is going on with stable kernels, and if I don't get it, probably a lot of other people don't either.

I agree that 2.6.8 is solid, I am running it on my net-facing systems, including the system at Serverbeach for which I don't have a remote console. But I don't see yet how Linus is going to have his cake and eat it.

Jon, of course, has already written an excellent article about the new kernel development process. I was too lazy to look it up before, but now, with the new, shiny Kernel Index, it took me two seconds. ;-)
