Kernel release status

The current development kernel is 2.6.38-rc1, released on January 18. "It's been two weeks, and the merge window for 2.6.38 is thus closed. And an interesting merge window it has been." All told, a little over 7,600 changes were merged in this merge window. Some of them affect core code in fairly invasive ways, and there have been some significant regressions reported already. People testing 2.6.38-rc1 might want to be just a little more careful (and better backed up) than usual. See the full changelog for all the details.

Stable updates: there have been no stable updates released in the last week.
