Welcome to the LWN.net Weekly Edition for November 12, 2020

• The RIAA, GitHub, and youtube-dl: an attempt to use the DMCA to suppress a useful free-software utility seems unlikely to succeed.
• Deprecating scp: the scp protocol is old, slow, and insecure; what should replace it?
• Atomic kmaps become local: a way of moving the cost of high memory to the minority of systems that need it.
• Migration disable for the mainline: another realtime feature heads upstream.
• KVM for Android: the challenges of supporting virtual machines on Android systems.

This week's edition also includes these inner pages:

• Brief items: Brief news items from throughout the community.
