We (the -stable team) are announcing the release of the 2.6.17.3 kernel.
Another SCTP remote crash fix, CVE-2006-2934.

I'll also be replying to this message with a copy of the patch between
2.6.17.2 and 2.6.17.3, as it is small enough to do so.

The updated 2.6.17.y git tree can be found at:
 	git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.17.y.git
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:
	www.kernel.org/git/

thanks,
-chris
