The flow of patches into Linus's git repository has slowed; that repository currently contains some key management improvements, a SCSI update, some netfilter patches, an InfiniBand update, and lots of fixes.
The current -mm tree is 2.6.14-rc2-mm1. Recent changes to -mm include a cs5535 ALSA driver, a new device_is_registered() helper function (since merged), some network time protocol cleanups, the controversial (see thread starting here) Adaptec serial attached storage patch set, and the usual pile of fixes.
The current 2.4 prepatch is 2.4.32-rc1, released by Marcelo on September 22. This prepatch adds a small set of fixes (some backported from 2.6) to the upcoming 2.4.32 release.
