Kernel release status

The 2.6.28 merge window is still open, so there is no 2.6 development kernel at the moment. See the article below for an update on what has been merged for the 2.6.28 development cycle.

The current stable 2.6 kernel is 2.6.27.2, released on October 18. It contains about a dozen important fixes. Previously, 2.6.27.1 was released with a single fix disabling the dynamic function tracing feature.

There are stable updates for the 2.6.25, 2.6.26, and 2.6.27 kernels in the review process as of this writing; chances are they will have been released by the time you read this.
