The Linux Foundation's kernel development report

The Linux Foundation has announced the annual update of its report on kernel development. There is little there that will be new to LWN readers, but, in the humble opinion of your editor (who is one of the authors), it is a good summary of the situation. "This paper documents a bit less frenzied development than the last one, which was expected given all the new features of 2.6.30 (ext4, ftrace, btrfs, perf etc) as well as the peak of merged drivers from Linux stable tree. Regardless, this report continues to paint a picture of a very strong and vibrant development community."
