The 2.6.3 kernel is out

Linus has announced the availability of the 2.6.3 kernel. Only a handful of patches have gone in since the last release candidate. Overall, 2.6.3 includes a great deal of internal cleanup work, the removal of the USB scanner driver (in favor of the user-space libusb solution), the new generic DMA pool mechanism, a big ALSA update, and quite a few architecture updates. See the long-format changelog for the details.
