Improvements in kernel development (developerWorks)

developerWorks has posted a look at how the kernel development process has changed between 2.4 and 2.6. "Having a live, central repository for the latest changes to the Linux kernel is invaluable. Every change or patch that is accepted into the kernel is tracked as a changeset. End users and developers can keep their own copy of the source repository and update it at will with the latest changesets using a simple command. For developers, this means the ability to always be working with the latest copy of the code."
