Marcelo Tosatti passes the 2.4 baton

[Posted July 28, 2006 by corbet]

Marcelo Tosatti has announced the availability of the third 2.4.33 release candidate, containing a very small number of patches. He has also announced that the 2.4 maintainership is passing on to Willy Tarreau, who has been running the 2.4 "hotfix" patch series for some time. Many thanks are due to Marcelo, who has maintained the 2.4 kernel since 2.4.16.

Sounds like a good move to me!

Fixes for 2.4 really haven't been released as promptly as one would wish (some 8 months since the last _released_ version?).

Willy on the other hand has been quite responsive in his -hf tree. I think 2.4 is in very good hands!
