Kernel release status

The current stable 2.6 release is 2.6.11.7, released on April 7. It contains several fixes, including the BIC collision window fix discussed last week's Kernel Page.

The current 2.6 prepatch remains 2.6.12-rc2. Kernel development has slowed significantly while the source code management issues are being worked out - see below.

The current -mm tree is 2.6.12-rc2-mm3. Recent changes to -mm include a big x86-64 update, an NFSv4 update, some scheduler tweaks, the removal of the last user of the deprecated inter_module functions, and lots of fixes.

The current 2.4 kernel remains 2.4.30; no 2.4.31 prepatches have been released.
