If and when it does happen, it will be done piecemeal over a number of releases, unless Linus changes his mind. Kbuild is not on the agenda at the kernel summit next week, and Keith Owens will not be there, but I wouldn't be surprised if the topic came up anyway. Stay tuned...

That's not surprizing - people working with 2.5.x kernels are busy fixing and improving them. Those "sitting" on the 2.4.x branch may not feel right to comment on 2.5.x kernels - it's not Slashdot, where it's a commonplace to comment on articles without reading them.<p> I just want to reassure the editors that those reports are very important. I always read them to see if there is anything that can affect the drivers I'm working on. In particular, the information about devicefs I found in one of the LWN reports was important for me, and I'm already planning for using it in my driver when it's compiled with the new kernels.<p> I'm going to try the next kernel when the new build system by Keith Owens is merged. I hope it will happen soon, and I read every announcement to see if it has been merged.<p> Good job, LWN editors! Thank you. Fri, 21 Jun 2002 15:38:14 +0000
