2.6.0-test9 user2.6.0-test9 userPosted Dec 2, 2003 2:34 UTC (Tue) by leonbrooks (guest, #1494)In reply to: 2.6.0-test9 user by Ross Parent article: 2.6 patch policy You have to balance that against the fixes which didn't happen anywhere because the developers didn't bother retrying when they were rejected during the prerelease bottleneck, and against the patches which hit the kernel hard because they developed in isolation and arrived in big chunks when contribution was opened up again instead of developing in manageable nibbles over time. Also, I'm guessing that there are enough people working on the kernel now, and enough bodies practiced at kernel lieutenancy that we can well afford to open 2.7 the instant a 2.6.0-test1 is released.
