Kernel release status [LWN.net]

The current development kernel remains 2.6.34-rc5; there have been no prepatches released over the last week. The flow of changes into the mainline continues; it contains lots of fixes but also the VMware balloon driver (discussed briefly here in early April) and the ipeth driver which facilitates USB tethering to iPhones. The 2.6.34-rc6 release can be expected soon - probably a few milliseconds after this page is published.

Stable updates: the 2.6.32.12 and 2.6.33.3 stable kernel updates were released on April 26.. Both updates are massive, with well over 100 fixes in each.

Take a page from Linus

What you need to do is copy Linus by making the weekly report variable as to publish date. Sometimes Tuesday evening, sometimes Thursday evening. Make it a moving target, just as Linus did for how long the merge window is open. That's the great thing about open source, you can copy as long as you let others copy :-) Just don't try to patent the idea, I am sure Linus's prior art would invalidate it.
