Kernel release status

The current development kernel is 3.2-rc3, released on November 23. "Anyway, whether you will be stuffing yourself with turkey tomorrow or not, there's a new -rc out. I'd love to say that things have been calming down, and that the number of commits just keep shrinking, but I'd be lying. -rc3 is actually bigger than -rc2, mainly due to a network update (none in -rc2) and with Greg doing his normal usb/driver-core/tty/staging thing." Linus appears to be back on the Wednesday release schedule, so expect -rc4 sometime shortly after this page is published.

Stable updates: the 2.6.32.49, 3.0.11, and 3.1.3 stable kernel updates were released on November 28; they contained a long list of fixes and (for 3.x) one bit of USB driver breakage. The 3.0.12 and 3.1.4 updates came out shortly thereafter with one patch to fix that problem.
