Due to travels and related lack of internet access, the rc releaseshaven't been following the normal Sunday release cycle, and since Icaught up with what happened while I was off-line, rather than waituntil next Sunday to reset to the normal cycle, I'm just releasing rc6now mid-week from Tokyo.With rc5 being a couple of days early, and rc6 being several dayslate, we had almost two weeks in between them. The size of the resultis not twice as large, though, hopefully partially because it'sgetting late in the rc series and things are supposed to be calmingdown, but presumably also because some submaintainers just didn't sendtheir pull requests because they knew I was off-line. Whatever thereason, things don't look bad.The patch distribution looks pretty normal too. Mostly drivers (acpi,sound, media, i915, clk, pci..) with the bulk of the rest beingvarious arch updates (notably MIPS, but arm and parisc too). And asmattering of other random stuff in filesystems and core kernel code.Anyway, depending a bit on what else is pending, I'll probably stretchout rc7 to get back to the normal Sunday schedule, and depending onhow things look by then that may or may not be the last rc.But please do test this, Linus Articles
