Linus Torvalds: Linux 2.6.15-rc2 Nov 20, 2005, 19 :00 UTC (3 Talkback[s]) (9441 reads) (Other stories by Linus Torvalds)
There it is (or will soon be - the tar-ball and patches are still
uploading, and mirroring can obviously take some time after that).
It's slightly bigger than I'd like, but that's partly because I had (once
more) missed a merge that was actually sent in well before the -rc1
cut-off, so the x86-64 merge is from there and was delayed due to yours
truly, not Andi Kleen.
Apart from the x86-64 merge and various fixups, I've let MIPS, PARISC and
PowerPC merge up some more.
The shortlog speaks for itself.
