Kernel release status

The current 2.6 development kernel is 2.6.31-rc3, released by Linus on July 13. There's lots of fixes, but this prepatch also includes a new driver for GPIO-based matrix keypads, the "osdblk" driver (which presents an object on an object storage device as a Linux block device), support for the loading of kernel module symbols in the performance counter tools, and the removal of the Intel Langwell USB OTG driver (because it depends on infrastructure which is not yet present in the mainline). The short-form changelog is in the announcement; full details can be found in the full changelog.

There have been no stable kernel updates over the last week.
